Because it doesn't accept a single number as an argument? (It's for IP addresses) I don't understand what you mean by this? By way of recompense for my lack of understanding, you might find this bit from the 5.8 INSTALL doc interesting/useful? =head2 64 bit support. Which if I read it right, indicates that you can get 64-integers in perl even on 32-bit platforms as of 5.8. You would have to re-compile to get it of course. Examine what is said, not who speaks.
