Raymond Hettinger added the comment:
The 3.3 version has the virtue of being accurate and the vice of being
confusing. In a way, it has made the docs worse for the average user of common
cases.
Is there a way to stack the alternative signatures rather than mush the various
used into a single pile of mush?
int(x=0) --> integer coercion
int(str, base=10) --> integer converted from string in a given base
