Right: I just changed it. It may date back to a version of the patch where I only changed the signatures of the functions, but not the object layout.

I just grepped for INT_MAX and there's a ton of them still (well 83 in */*.c). Some aren't an issue like posixmodule.c, those are _SC_INT_MAX. marshal is probably ok, but all uses should be verified. Really all uses of {INT,LONG}_{MIN,MAX} should be verified and converted to PY_SSIZE_T_{MIN,MAX} as appropriate. There are only a few {INT,LONG}_MIN and 22 LONG_MAX. I'll try to review these soon unless someone beats me to it. n
