Comment:

 Robust operations with 64 bit integer coordinates are not supported
 currently. We do not have adding support for this in our short term plans,
 but replacing some of the coordinate_traits for the 64 bit coordinate type
 with sufficiently large data types ought to work out of the box.  The main
 problem we have with doing so is lack of such types available to us in the
 STL or Boost.
