When trying to do math on an big integer (int64) large number in xslt template I get the wrong result since there is no native 64-bit integer support in xslt (xslt number is 64-bit double). I am using msxml 6.0 on Windows XP SP3. Are there any work around for this on Windows?

<tables>
  <table>
    <table_schem>REPADMIN</table_schem>
    <table_name>TEST_DESCEND_IDENTITY_BIGINT</table_name>
    <column>
      <col_name>COL1</col_name>
      <identity>
        <col_min_val>9223372036854775805</col_min_val>
        <col_max_val>9223372036854775805</col_max_val>
        <autoincrementvalue>9223372036854775807</autoincrementvalue>
        <autoincrementstart>9223372036854775807</autoincrementstart>
        <autoincrementinc>-1</autoincrementinc>
      </identity>
    </column>
  </table>
</tables>

This test returns true due to overflow (I am assuming) but actually is false if I could tell the xslt processor somehow to use int64 rather than the default 64-bit double for the data since big integer is the actual data type for the numbers in the xml input.

          <xsl:when test="autoincrementvalue = 
                (col_min_val + autoincrementinc)">
            <xsl:value-of select="''"/>
          </xsl:when>

here is the complete template
