It is certainly reasonable to limit arenas to uint. Still, the test for SIZE_MAX must remain: it doesn't test whether numarenas overflows, but whether numarenas*sizeof(*arenas) overflows as a parameter for realloc. As the parameter for realloc is size_t (per C spec), the overflow test needs to use PY_SIZE_MAX. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3642> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
