Bug reference:      1449
Logged by:          Michael Robinton
Email address:      michael@insulin-pumpers.org
PostgreSQL version: 7.4.6
Operating system:   linux
Description:        JDBC client driver bug waiting to happen
Details:

if "int size" is set to 8, there is insufficient storage in "int n" to
accomodate 8 bytes of storage since jave thinks an int is 4 bytes. Since
currently no 8 byte longs are sent, this bug is not apparent.

This is not a bug.  The ReceiveInteger function you are looking at is a
part of the low level protocol code and int size will never be > 4.  It
has nothing to do with how something like ResultSet.getLong() treats
integer values.
