Thanks,  that explains a lot.

Extensions to ANSI C don't cause any problems
per se that I can think of.

However, I know in near future all Python
integers will be of type "Python long" and there
won't be "Python ints" anymore IIRC.

I wonder if Python source will still use 64 bit ints then in
implementation.
