Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:
I don't think there is a bug. There are several ways to get the integer
representation of the pointer. PyLong_FromVoidPtr() is the most
straightforward. From Python side id() uses it. printf("%p") is a way of
getting string representation of the pointer, that string can be converted to
integer. This way is used in object.__repr__(). Usually %p formats the pointer
as hexadecimal, but the sign is not defined. Therefore when the pointer is
converted to the integer it can be interpreted as either signed or unsigned
integer. PyLong_AsVoidPtr() should accept both representations.
