Note that this behaviour was introduced in version 2.0 of Python. (Or was it
1.6?)

The Python 1.5.2 version of str would leave the 'L' on the end. If you are
using an old version, you'll just have to chop it off if it's there:

spam = str(12345678901234567890)
if spam[-1] in 'lL': spam = spam[:-1]
