I can confirm your failure in current sources on Win32:
template1=# create table test(x int8);
CREATE TABLE
template1=# insert into test values ('4567890123456789');
INSERT 17235 1
template1=# select * from test;
x
------------
-869367531
(1 row)
and it knows it is a large number:
template1=# select * from test where x > 1000::int8;
x
------------
-869367531
(1 row)
template1=# select * from test where x < 1000::int8;
x
---
(0 rows)
I am going to add some debugs to see what is being passed to *printf().
