description:
[svn r6499] Support for keyword arguments (PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords) donated by
Geoff Philbrick <philbric@delphi.hks.com> (slightly changed by me).
Also a little change to make the file acceptable to K&R C compilers
(HPUX, SunOS 4.x).
to integer PyArg_Parse* format codes into a TypeError. Add a
DeprecationWarning for floats passed with the 'L' format code, which
didn't previously have a warning.

At least some of these fixes should probably be backported to 2.5.
My tests don't show the promised speed up of 10%. The code is as fast as the old code for simple cases and slightly faster for complex cases with several of args and kwargs. But the patch simplifies the code, too.
* unified the way intobject, longobject and mystrtoul handle
values around -sys.maxint-1.
* in general, trying to entierely avoid overflows in any computation
involving signed ints or longs is extremely involved. Fixed a few
simple cases where a compiler might be too clever (but that's all
guesswork).
* more overflow checks against bad data in marshal.c.
* 2.5 specific: fixed a number of places that were still confusing int
and Py_ssize_t. Some of them could potentially have caused
"real-world" breakage.
* list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy. I just reverted
to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing. (An obscure
test was trying to give a Decimal to list.pop()... doesn't make
sense any more IMHO)

passing a string. Martin already fixed the actual crash by ensuring
Py_UNICODE is unsigned. As discussed on python-dev, this fix
removes the possibility of creating a unicode string from a raw buffer.
There is an outstanding question of how to fix the crash in 2.4.
In C++, it's an error to pass a string literal to a char* function
without a const_cast(). Rather than require every C++ extension
module to put a cast around string literals, fix the API to state the
const-ness.
I focused on parts of the API where people usually pass literals:
PyArg_ParseTuple() and friends, Py_BuildValue(), PyMethodDef, the type
slots, etc. Predictably, there were a large set of functions that
needed to be fixed as a result of these changes. The most pervasive
change was to make the keyword args list passed to
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKewords() to be a const char *kwlist[].
One cast was required as a result of the changes: A type object
mallocs the memory for its tp_doc slot and later frees it.
PyTypeObject says that tp_doc is const char *; but if the type was
created by type_new(), we know it is safe to cast to char *.
