+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+*np.genfromtxt* now correctly handles integers larger than ``2**31-1`` on
+32-bit systems and larger than ``2**63-1`` on 64-bit systems (it previously
+crashed with an ``OverflowError`` in these cases). Integers larger than
+``2**63-1`` are converted to floating-point values.
