I just run into this:

julia> GAP.julia_to_gap(big(2)^62)
GAP: 4611686018427387904

julia> GAP.julia_to_gap(2^62)
4611686018427387904

Without reflecting it deeper, I would expect the two to return the same thing. Maybe I am wrong, need to think more about it.

See also PR #434 and thinks that links to, and probably a bunch of other issues and PRs sigh
