ITU-T Recommendation X.680 says 3.8.40 integer type: A simple type with distinguished values which are the positive and negative whole numbers, including zero (as a single value). NOTE � Particular encoding rules limit the range of an integer, but such limitations are chosen so as not to affect any user of ASN.1. and I don't see anything about a type that includes only the positive whole numbers, including zero - i.e., no unsigned type - so perhaps, if we're to strictly interpret ASN.1, either all integral types should be signed, and any integral type with values> 2147483647 should be 64-bit (or we should introduce bignums so that we don't have to bail out on *any* ASN.1 number) or, at least, all *unconstrained* integral types should be signed and 64-bit (or, if we introduce bignums, bignum), with only integral types constrained to a minimum value>= 0 unsigned, and with the width of the type chosen based on the constraints. The right short-term fix might be to make the arguments to dissect_per_constrained_integer() be gint64 rather than guint32 - and perhaps have the pointer for the returned value be a gint64 * rather than a guint32 *.
Yes I vote for that.
