Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: C implementation almost everywhere (except strftime/strptime) accepts long as well as int, but not general integral numbers. Python implementation of the datetime module is not entire compatible with C implementation (default in CPython), therefore alternative Python implementations that doesn't use an accelerator is incompatible with CPython. I consider this as a bug and think that we should weak some of checks isinstance(..., int) to isinstance(..., (int, long)). numbers.Integral is too wide type, C implementation doesn't support it.
