Well that boundary is the magic positive versus negative signed 64
bit integer value.
It's really just a cross check to confirm everything works as
expected in the 64bit version.
it would appear that you've done below that value, and above the
value with your 0xFF testing,
it's just the crossing of that value, to dot our I's and cross our
t's so to speak.
