Summary: fcntl.ioctl on openbsd

Initial Comment:
>From the OpenBSD man page -------

#include <sys/ioctl.h>
int
ioctl(int d, unsigned long request, ...);
--

On OpenBSD ioctl takes an unsigned long for the action
to be preformed on d. The function fcntl_ioctl() in
Modules/fcntlmodule.c will only accept an int for the
second argument without rasing an error. On OpenBSD
(maybe free/net also I have not checked) an unsigned
long should be the largest allowed.

>From Modules/fcntlmodule.c -------
PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "iis#:ioctl", &fd, &code, &str,
&len))
