How can I port the php code, which return 0 (zero), and looks exactly
like this:

<?php
$a = 5543039447;
$b = 2147483648;
$result = ($a & $b);
echo "$result\n" ;
?>

to perl? In perl almost the exactly same code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
$a = 5543039447;
$b = 2147483648;
$result = ($a & $b);
print "$result\n" ;

returns 2147483648.

How do I have to modify the perl code, so that it will actually do a
bitwise and? I don't get - any workaround? Somethings I'm not getting
here? I'm using linux debian/sarge with an intel 32 bit prozessor.
