[issue2417] [py3k] Integer floor division (//): small int check omitted

I really don't understand *why* it's a bug.

Is anywhere in the Language Reference that says that 1 should be the
same object that another 1?

Or do you mean that they *should* be the same object for speed and/or
memory reasons? In this case... is this a bug? Or a request for
improvement or something?
