OK, that was it. I inserted without quotes. If I insert the quotes it
works. So why does it work correctly on linux without quotes?
and
insert into lint values ('9223372036854775807'::int8);
works, but
insert into lint values (9223372036854775807::int8);
doesn't. I guess in the second case it converts it to an int4 and then
recasts to an int8?
