I replaced all the trivial ones; the remaining ones are (IMO) more
involved, or correct. In particular:
- collectionsmodule: deque is still restricted to 2GiB elements
- cPickle: pickling does not support huge strings (and probably
shouldn't); likewise marshal
- _sre is still limited to INT_MAX completely
- not sure why the mbcs codec is restricted to INT_MAX; somebody
should check the Win64 API whether the restriction can be
removed (most likely, it can)
- PyObject_CallFunction must be duplicated for PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN,
then exceptions.c can be extended.
