[CIQBUG] Misinterpretation of Certain Lowercase Hex Values

At least on the simulator, the following code does not produce good results:

var good1 = 0x1234ABCD;

        var bad1 = 0x1234abcd;



        Sys.println(good1 + " " + bad1);

I get the following output:
305441741 19090108

It looks like the last nibble of "bad1" is getting truncated (19090108 = 0x1234ABC).

Most probably due to the d suffix meaning a double value? Still a bug though.

We had this reported a while back, here:

You'll see this with 'd' and 'f', corresponding to doubles and floats. Upper case letters will work as expected, but the issue has been addressed and will be available in the next public release. Apologies for the inconvenience!

No worries. Thanks!
