Message 162760 - Python tracker

fijal: while I agree with you, the limit for small ints has actually been pushed to 257 in recent CPythons.  So it should still theoretically work --- of course, assuming a predictable CPU, which is wrong, and assuming a simple interpreter.  (We can probably dig enough to find a timing issue even with CPython, and of course it's clear with any of the other Python interpreters out there.)
