Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: This patch still(!) applies almost perfectly cleanly to trunk. On a 64- bit machine, I'm getting a failure in test_auto_overflow, coming from:
>>> pow(0L, 0, 9223372036854775807) 28051505152L I haven't looked hard to figure out where this is coming from, but my guess is that the 15-bitness of digits is hard-coded in the patch somewhere. My general feeling is that three-argument pow is such a little-used operation in Python that it's not worth the extra code to speed it up. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue936813> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
