I'm wrong, it's in the spec (lexer.html).

If it is in the range 0..int.max, it is an int.
If it is in the range int.max+1u .. uint.max, it is a uint.
You can check it with this:

static assert(is (typeof(0x7FFF_FFFF) == int));
static assert(is (typeof(0x8000_0000) == uint));

So, it looks as though your original interpretation of the issue wasn't
correct. There may be something else going on though.

The fact that you were on Windows rules out a 64 bit codegen issue, which was
the obvious scapegoat.
