[Python-ideas] Issue with sys.exit and a long

[Ryan Gonzalez]

Observe:

ryan at DevPC-LX:~/bfort$ python -c 'import sys; sys.exit(1)'
ryan at DevPC-LX:~/bfort$ python -c 'import sys; sys.exit(1L)'
1
ryan at DevPC-LX:~/bfort$

If I call sys.exit with a long value under Python 2, it prints it. I count
this as a bug because:

1. int and long are supposed to be as similar as possible.
2. When you're using Hy (which implicitly makes all ints longs), this sucks.
