[issue8259] left shift operator doesn't accepts long as second argument

Antoine Pitrou:
The reason you get an OverflowError in 32-bit mode is that 2**31 is too large to be represented as a (signed) C long, rather than unsigned.

I understand that, but after reading documentation, was expecting it to convert second argument to long type, which is not concerned with architecture dependant implementation of int.
