run this short script :
set c to "9998765432" set r to c as real set i to r as integer log r log i
I assumed that I will get an error message because the number is too big for an integer bu I got this report : (*9.998765432E+9*) (*2.147483647E+9*)
I get
error "Can’t make 9.998765432E+9 into type integer." number -1700 from 9.998765432E+9 to integer
Snow Leopard 10.6.3.
Hello
It become really puzzling.

Similar result under 10.6.3, but the result of truncating the number is different. Where you just got the maximum integer value (2^31-1), I got the original number modulo 2^31:
(*9.998765432E+9*) (*1.40883084E+9*)
Are you running Applescript or Smile ?
As my daughter is back, I was able to run under 10.6.3 with AppleScript 2.1.2, Editor 2;3 (118) I got : (*9.998765432E+9*) (*1.40883084E+9*)
