The source code for NA_set_Float has a "#if HAS_UINT64" while NA_set_Int64 doesn't. Neither function works for UInt64 input. It seems that the only difference between these two functions is the cast done to the input variable "v" when the function is called.
Currently, UInt64 is supported everywhere but under win32/MSVC. So, on the standard windows numarray installation, Uint64 is not supported and UInt64 arrays cannot be created. Under these circumstances, the UInt64 paths you're referring to cannot be reached anyway. Further, since the code in question compiles without warnings or errors, I'd argue that it *does* work for UInt64 inputs, although they're never going to appear. I say this because there are indeed sections of numarray code that *don't* compile without errors for MSVC, hence all UInt64 has been disabled for MSVC. Bottom line: what you're talking about is indeed a little inconsistent, but I don't think it's going to hurt us.
