Thanks for the patch.

Are there practical cases where the operator.index check is more useful that 
the isinstance(..., (int, long)) check that you originally proposed 
(off-tracker)?  While I agree that it's the right fix in principle, the 
operator.index check smells a bit like new functionality to me, and risks 
changing behaviour for those (rare, I hope) user-defined classes that implement 
both __index__ and sequence methods.
