[GAP Forum] big domains

Dear Forum,

I have the following question. Is it possible to loop over domains
containing more then 2^28 elements?

For example, the code

k:=0;
for g in AlternatingGroup(13) do k:=k+1; od;

returns an error "List Element: <position> must be a positive integer (not a integer (>=
2^28))..." in just few hours, which is a very reasonable time for
computations.

Thank you,
Dima Savchuk
