>isn't int(0..4294967295) good enough for that?

That is a compiletime type, not a core runtime type.  The runtime
values are stored as one of the core runtime types T_INT or T_OBJECT,
depending on if it fits in an INT_TYPE or not.  What you suggest would
require a new core runtime type T_UINT, and support for it in
basically all C code which supports T_INT.
