[Bug 429229] [NEW] 32-bit integer overflow in facebookchat plugin

[David Gibson]

Public bug reported:

There appears to be a 32-bit integer overflow problem in facebookchat.
When I attempt to chat with someone whose Facebook uid is > 2^32 the
messages are sent correctly, but the return messages show up as coming
from their UID truncated to 32 bits.

This is in Karmic:

mulberryst:~$ dpkg -l pidgin-facebookchat
