Transmitting a big integer like a random serial number over
either xmlrpc or JSON is problematic because they only support
32-bit integers at best. A random serial number can be as big
as 128 bits (theoretically 160 but dogtag limits it).
Treat as a string instead. Internally the value can be treated
as an Integer to conversions to/from hex as needed but for
transmission purposes handle it as a string.
