Implicitly casting integer to bigint (9.1)

[Wells Oliver <wellsoliver@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have about 20 functions that all accept integer value inputs.

I want to have views which call these functions using various SUMs of integers e.g. 

select myfunction(sum(foo), sum(bar)) where foo and bar are integer types.

This doesn't really work, you get:

ERROR:  function aggregates.stat_avg(bigint, bigint) does not exist

Integer is definitely the right type to use for the underlying table. Do I really need to have an explicit cast to bigint in these views? Seems tedious.
