Description:
should select from_unixtime(power(2,60)) work for 64-bits system?
bug 9191 change mysql to work with 2^31-1, but in 64 system this could be 2^63-1 right?

How to repeat:
should select from_unixtime(power(2,60))

Suggested fix:
maybe OS specific features?

Thank you for a problem report. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time, it looks like a reasonable feature request for me (to support 64-bit on OSes whete time_t is 64 bit). Surely, it can be OS-dependent.

maybe an OS independent implementation could help? just for from and to unix_timestamp functions
we could use only 64 int and get fractions of second from OS
what are you thinking?

This is a duplicate of bug #12654. Work in progress already.
