Though they produce a StackOverflow error, the following code compiles
just fine:

  int[8053063679] isieve;
  uint[536870911] usieve;
  bit[96636764159] sieve;
  double[7784628223] dsieve;

However, all of the following produce:
      Internal error: ..\ztc\cgcod.c 614

  double[-1] d;
  double[7784628224] dsieve;
  int[-1] i;
  int[8053063680] isieve;
  uint[-1] u;
  uint[536870912] usieve;
  bit[-1] b;
  bit[96636764160] sieve;

these all seem to be numbers bigger than 32 bits.  perhaps it has something to do with the compiler truncating them and getting a negative value..?

i'm not sure why you want such large numbers though :)  though the compiler should flag a negative array size as an error.
