Forward-port of r52136,52138: a review of overflow-detecting code.
...
* unified the way intobject, longobject and mystrtoul handle
values around -sys.maxint-1.
* in general, trying to entierely avoid overflows in any computation
involving signed ints or longs is extremely involved. Fixed a few
simple cases where a compiler might be too clever (but that's all
guesswork).
* more overflow checks against bad data in marshal.c.
* 2.5 specific: fixed a number of places that were still confusing int
and Py_ssize_t. Some of them could potentially have caused
"real-world" breakage.
* list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy. I just reverted
to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing. (An obscure
test was trying to give a Decimal to list.pop()... doesn't make
sense any more IMHO)
* trying to write a few tests...

Sigh, I only fixed for loops the first time, not list comps and genexprs too.
I couldn't find any more unpacking cases where there is a similar bug lurking.
This code should be refactored to eliminate the duplication. I'm sure
the listcomp/genexpr code can be refactored. I'm not sure if the for loop
can re-use any of the same code though.

"Conceptual" merge of rev 51711 from the 2.5 branch.
...
i_divmod(): As discussed on Python-Dev, changed the overflow
checking to live happily with recent gcc optimizations that
assume signed integer arithmetic never overflows.
This differs from the corresponding change on the 2.5 and 2.4
branches, using a less obscure approach, but one that /may/
tickle platform idiocies in their definitions of LONG_MIN.
The 2.4 + 2.5 change avoided introducing a dependence on
LONG_MIN, at the cost of substantially goofier code.

Apply the patch #1532975 plus ideas from the patch #1533481 .

ctypes instances no longer have the internal and undocumented
'_as_parameter_' attribute which was used to adapt them to foreign
function calls; this mechanism is replaced by a function pointer in
the type's stgdict.
In the 'from_param' class methods, try the _as_parameter_ attribute if
other conversions are not possible.
This makes the documented _as_parameter_ mechanism work as intended.

Fix a couple of bugs exposed by the new __index__ code. The 64-bit buildbots
...
were failing due to inappropriate clipping of numbers larger than 2**31
with new-style classes. (typeobject.c) In reviewing the code for classic
classes, there were 2 problems. Any negative value return could be returned.
Always return -1 if there was an error. Also make the checks similar
with the new-style classes. I believe this is correct for 32 and 64 bit
boxes, including Windows64.
Add a test of classic classes too.

Patch #1538606 , Patch to fix __index__() clipping.
...
I modified this patch some by fixing style, some error checking, and adding
XXX comments. This patch requires review and some changes are to be expected.
I'm checking in now to get the greatest possible review and establish a
baseline for moving forward. I don't want this to hold up release if possible.

that use pdb or tracing could test heavily.
Also:
* Remove dead/duplicated code that wasn't used/necessary
because we already handled the docstring prior to entering the loop.
* add some debugging code into the compiler (#if 0'd out).

Patch #1520294 : Support for getset and member descriptors in types.py,
...
inspect.py, and pydoc.py. Specifically, this allows for querying the type of
an object against these built-in C types and more importantly, for getting
their docstrings printed in the interactive interpreter's help() function.
This patch includes a new built-in module called _types which provides
definitions of getset and member descriptors for use by the types.py module.
These types are exposed as types.GetSetDescriptorType and
types.MemberDescriptorType. Query functions are provided as
inspect.isgetsetdescriptor() and inspect.ismemberdescriptor(). The
implementations of these are robust enough to work with Python implementations
other than CPython, which may not have these fundamental types.
The patch also includes documentation and test suite updates.
I commit these changes now under these guiding principles:
1. Silence is assent. The release manager has not said "no", and of the few
people that cared enough to respond to the thread, the worst vote was "0".
2. It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
3. It's so dang easy to revert stuff in svn, that you could view this as a
forcing function. :)
Windows build patches will follow.

Bug #1521947 : possible bug in mystrtol.c with recent gcc.
...
In general, C doesn't define anything about what happens when
an operation on a signed integral type overflows, and PyOS_strtol()
did several formally undefined things of that nature on signed
longs. Some version of gcc apparently tries to exploit that now,
and PyOS_strtol() could fail to detect overflow then.
Tried to repair all that, although it seems at least as likely to me
that we'll get screwed by bad platform definitions for LONG_MIN
and/or LONG_MAX now. For that reason, I don't recommend backporting
this.
Note that I have no box on which this makes a lick of difference --
can't really test it, except to note that it didn't break anything
on my boxes.
Silent change: PyOS_strtol() used to return the hard-coded 0x7fffffff
in case of overflow. Now it returns LONG_MAX. They're the same only on
32-bit boxes (although C doesn't guarantee that either ...).
