This patch doesn't address support for fetching 64-bit values; rather, it only
addresses setting them. In that vein, you can test support for this by setting
TEST_BSD_SYSCTL_NAME to a 64-bit sysctl prior to running the tests.

FWIW, we use this in production where I work. (I know it still would be nice to
have independent verification.)
