I'd be interested to know what value actually does get passed. I doubt
it's as much as your hard drive size, unless your hard drive is less
than 4GB.

For what it's worth, that 0xFF...FF value is not going to magically be
any larger than the maximum size of an integer. I'm just not sure what
does happen when you append a gazillion extra digits.
