I'm with the OP. I'm migrating an app from HostMonster shared hosting to a
WiredTree VPS.
On HM, filter_var runs as expected (as stated above). On WiredTree, it returns
false.
So, at BEST, PHP's behavior is inconsistent.

It returns a PHP integer which is limited to 32bits.
If you like to get a string containing a big integer, you can use the sanitize
rule.
Once PHP has 64bits integer support, it will be available in filter as well.
Not a bug > bogus.

Description:
------------
FILTER_VALIDATE_INT should validate anything that normal people consider an
integer as such, rather than being limited to what my computer can store in 32
bits.
Reproduce code:
---------------
filter_var('2147483648', FILTER_VALIDATE_INT);
Expected result:
----------------
returns '2147483648'
Actual result:
--------------
returns FALSE
