Yeah, but wouldn't you also have to take care of overflowing in Python
as well?
Python auto-promotes from int/long storage to basically an
infinitely-long-long so you can reasonably do things like
x = 2 ** 129
y = 3 ** 128
z = y - x
and get meaningful results that you can check against machine/vim
limits before returning to vim.
