There are two parts of the issue: Equalizer and the application.
Equalizer and related sample applications should support it, but it is
not tested regularly. The Linux/Windows interoperability is also
broken right now, see bug 2849878.

All this points to non 64/32-bit-aware serializers. If you want to
debug it, set a breakpoint at the corresponding code and read the code
and it's serialization counter part carefully to find the issue. I'll
gladly apply a patch.
Alternatively raise your voice by opening a bug, if this feature is
important to you. We will likely look at it before the 1.0.
Cheers,
Stefan.
