I'd say it's a bug.
It seems that we didn't have any Sys_var_set variable with more than 32
elements in the set yet, so it didn't show up.

To continue, I think, you can fix my_set_bits to work on ulonglongs.
Or create a second my_set_bits64().

Btw, I suspect you'll see more sql_mode issues caused by you going
over 32 bits.
