Thanks, Benjamin! Checked in in r68553, backported to 3.0 in r68556.
Here's the second patch, which fixes almost all remaining uses of nb_long
but stops short of actually removing/renaming the nb_long slot.
Notes:
(1) I haven't tested the change to PC/winreg.c
(2) The Modules/_struct.c change does introduce a change in behaviour:
for example, before the patch,
struct.pack('q', decimal.Decimal(1))
raises struct.error. After the patch, the packing succeeds. I *think*
the patched behaviour is probably the right behaviour, since it agrees
with 2.x, but it's not 100% clear to me what the intentions of the struct
module are with respect to integer packing of non-integer types. This is
probably a question for another issue.
