Suggestion: - int() has to stay in builtins for obvious reasons. - put *all* of trunc, ceil, floor, round into math. - make int(float) an error The only fly in the ointment is that 2to3 can't handle the semantic issues around converting int(n) to math.trunc(n) because it can't detect the type of n. So why not make int(float) warn in -3 mode on 2.6, and then let 2to3 do the conversion (on the basis that 2to3 should only be run on code that is -3 warning free)? Did I miss a requirement here?
