Summary: module array: C type descriptions wrong
Initial Comment:
The C types corresponding to the 'array' type codes
seem to be documented incorrectly.
See:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-array.html
All C integer types are listed as 'int' or 'unsigned
int'. I'm guessing from the sizes and the C standard
that these should be 'char', 'short', 'int', and 'long'.
This agrees with what the Python Essential reference
has to say (Beazley, p127)
