echo 0x80000000%0x2;
echo 0x80000001%0x2;
echo 0x80000002%0x2;
echo 0x80000003%0x2;
echo 0x80000080%0x100;
all above will be 0

and 0xffffffff%0x2=0, but -1%2 will be -1...

> Not true. 2147483649 % 3 returns -2. This is because PHP numbers are
signed longs. If you want really large numbers, use bcmath extention.

Yes.. in this case -2 can be interpreted as 0, but... see examples above.
