As long as I'm eyeballin' (and you're thankin'), I notice in PyInt_AsLong:

 if (op == NULL || (nb = op->ob_type->tp_as_number) == NULL ||
     nb->nb_int == NULL) {
    PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "an integer is required");
  return -1;
 }

But really, an integer isn't required; Any type with a tp_as_number section
and a conversion to int will do. Should the error say "a numeric type
convertible to int is required"?
