[docs] [issue17576] PyNumber_Index() is not int-subclass friendly (or operator.index() docos lie)

Mark Dickinson added the comment: Yes, the PyLong_As... conversions are a mess. In theory, they should all use __index__ if available, and ignore __int__. In practice, it's a mess that's difficult to change without breaking things. I think there are already some other issues open on this subject. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17576> _______________________________________
