Re: "long int..." exception reported with strange traceback location

Yep, my thinking too. Well, maybe it's all related to the same bug
somehow. OK, I submitted a bug report, and I included a slight
modification of the test case you guys suggested:

----------------
import sys
import os

t = 2147483648L
os.utime("foo_test_file", (t, t))

print "hi"
----------------

This way, there's no "float" call, simply an asignment of a long int...

        Thanks, Joe
