:Third attempt; this passes all tests here with i64 + ld, and I'm
:working on testing the other combinations.

i32 + ld (which I've never tried before) gives me one test failure,
which I don't think is my fault:
crypt% ( cd t ; op/int.t )
1..14
ok 1
ok 2
ok 3
ok 4

not ok 8 # int(4294967303.15) is 4294967302, not 4294967303
not ok 9 # int(4294967303.15) is -4294967302, not -4294967303

crypt%
