New submission from Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de>:
_sre.c:match_start currently uses Py_BuildValue("i") to return the start index,
which itself is of type Py_ssize_t. This will get truncated on x64 Windows if
the start is > 2**31. PyInt_FromSsize_t should be used instead. Other usages of
Py_BuildValue should be reviewed as well.
