David Jones <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

I agree, longs should be correctly rounded when coerced to floats.

There is an ugly (but amusing) workaround while people wait for this 
patch:  Go via a string:

int(float(repr(295147905179352891391)[:-1]))

Though I assume this relies on the platform's strtod working correctly.  
Which it does for me.
