/**
 * Support for handling 64-bit int numbers in Javascript (node.js)
 *
 * JS Numbers are IEEE-754 binary double-precision floats, which limits the
 * range of values that can be represented with integer precision to:
 *
 * 2^^53 <= N <= 2^53
 *
 * Int64 objects wrap a node Buffer that holds the 8-bytes of int64 data.  These
 * objects operate directly on the buffer which means that if they are created
 * using an existing buffer then setting the value will modify the Buffer, and
 * vice-versa.
 *
 * Internal Representation
 *
 * The internal buffer format is Big Endian.  I.e. the most-significant byte is
 * at buffer[0], the least-significant at buffer[7].  For the purposes of
 * converting to/from JS native numbers, the value is assumed to be a signed
 * integer stored in 2's complement form.
 *
 * For details about IEEE-754 see:
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_precision_floating-point_format

The implementation claims "dependency on buffer removed", but I still encounter the following issue:

var x = new Int64(0x123456789);
// throws "Uncaught ReferenceError: Buffer is not defined"

However, replacing if (a1 instanceof Buffer) { with if (typeof Buffer !== 'undefined' && a1 instanceof Buffer) { seems to have resolved the issue.
