Usage questions like this belong on comp.lang.python or the corresponding
mailing list, not on the development list.  In addition, you should give a
subject heading, something like 'Int from hex string'.  '(no subject)'
makes your posting look like possible spam, and it invites people who pick
and choose threads to skip on to the next.
