Eagle import - Invalid hexadecimal number in input/source

[Giovanni Vandewaetere]

Importing an eagle file on OSX generates hex numbers inside the file that are not accepted by the windows build of KiCad. Doing the reverse (importing in windows and opening on OSX) is no problem as the hex numbers are smaller in the windows import.

It looks like this could be a 32bit vs 64bit problem.

It looks like the timestamp generated in osx is 64 bit, while the one from windows is 32 bit.
