[New-bugs-announce] [issue21856] memoryview: no overflow on large slice values (start, stop, step)

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor:

As I following up to the issue #21831, I don't understand why memoryview[2**100:] doesn't raise an overflow error!? It looks like a bug.

Attached patch changes the behaviour to raise an OverflowError.
