Reported by Per Cederqvist ceder@lysator.liu.se

The add_int32() method of Stdio.Buffer is supposed to accept any 32-bit number, in the range 0-0xffffffff. When Pike is compiled on a 64-bit system this works. But on a 32-bit i686 Debian 8 it fails:

Bad argument 1 to add_int32(). Expected int.
Unknown program: add_int32(4294967295)
-:1:
    _static_modules._Stdio()->Buffer(0 bytes, read=[..-1] data=[0..-1] free=[0
    ..224] allocated)->add_int32(4294967295)                                  
/home/minibuilder/buffer-fun.pike:6: /main()->main()

Test program:

#!/usr/bin/env pike8

int main()
{
  Stdio.Buffer buffer = Stdio.Buffer();
  buffer->add_int32(0xffffffff);
  werror("%O\n", buffer->read());
  return 0;
}

Tested with the current head of the 8.0 branch from the Git repo.
