Python is providing a stat module implemented in Python since 10 years, or maybe 20 years, and I don't remember that someone complained that constants are wrong. At the same time, Python distributes IN.py which contains things like that: LONG_MAX = 9223372036854775807 LONG_MAX = 2147483647 LONG_MIN = (-LONG_MAX - 1) In my opinion, the situation of plat-*/*.py modules is worse than stat.py :-) Victor
