+	    Avoid corrupt oversized integer to be created from binary
+	    matching. Instead throw system_limit exception which is
+	    the correct behavior. A peculiar symptom of this bug was
+	    that bitwise operations (band, bor, bxor) on such
+	    oversized integers could return the empty list [].
