New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:
The 'i' format unit is often used for semantically boolean values. When the
parameter has a default value, in Argument clinic you should specify it twice,
as Python and C values:
closefd: int(c_default="1") = True
or
keepends: int(py_default="False") = 0
Proposed patch adds the boolint converter which makes a conversion for you.
closefd: boolint = True
keepends: boolint = False
