SERIAL, too low a value

I want to create a sequence with a higher value than an int4.
Please explain how to do this, if possible.

There's no way in current releases.

If not, this is certainly an issue that has to be targeted real soon, or?

Sequences are already reimplemented as int8-based for 7.2.

Thanks plenty!
