Since Python 2.5, we maintain two versions of PyArg_ParseTuple:
one outputting int; the other one outputting Py_ssize_t.
The former should have been removed in 3.0, but this was forgotten.
Still, I would like people to move over to the new version, so
that extension modules will typically support 64-bit collections
well. Therefore, I'd like to propose that the int version is deprecated
in 3.3.
By the way, what is the status of migration to Py_ssize_t of CPython
extensions? I suppose that adding a warning will quickly give an answer.
You'll get a series of very visible warnings from the C compiler when
compiling a non-Py_ssize_t extension on a 64bit platform, which is a rather
common platform type these days. So I'd doubt that there are any
still-in-use extensions left that have not migrated.
