This contradicts the docs, e.g.: length(typemin(Int8):typemax(Int8)) == 0.
Also, length(typemin(Int):typemax(Int)) triggers an overflow error (but this is a less new problem).

Maybe worse: length(typemin(Int8):(typemax(Int8)-int8(1)))==-1.
This does not seem necessary as the length returns an Int.
