We have moodle 1.1.1 running on OS X 10.3.2, and we are getting ridiculously large numbers of replies stated in forums.
When a new topic is posted, it correctly says '0 replies so far', but when one reply has been posted it says '72057594037927936 replies so far'
Is this some PHP or MySQL problem? Here is our php.ini file:
auto_detect_line_endings = true
magic_quotes_runtime = 0
file_uploads = 1
upload_max_filesize = 10M
session.auto_start = 0
session.bug_compat_warn = 0
Any help will be appreciated!

We've this very same problem. To obtain the right number of answers, just divide your big number by $$2^{56}$$! 
After extended tests, I discovered that this is a pure MySQL problem with this version
mysql Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.16, for apple-darwin7.0 (powerpc)
on Mac OS X Server 10.3.2. Notice the "darwin7.0". It has nothing to do with Moodle
You can look here for an example to reproduce the bug http://www.entropy.ch/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=965.
We decided not to upgrade MySQL, waiting for the next version from Apple.
If you want to upgrade, you could follow the instructions on this excellent web page http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/mysql/
Good luck !
