In the C/API reference manual section 1.2.1, should "assuming sizeof(long) >= sizeof(char*)" change long to Py_ssize_t? |

I think it should be changed to "because sizeof(Py_ssize_t) == sizeof(void*)" |

Georg, did you miss the s/assuming/because/ part of my proposal? Python guarantees that sizeof(Py_ssize_t) == sizeof(size_t) == sizeof(void*). (See PEP 353.) "Assuming" is therefore misleading because it suggests that it may not be always true. |

PEP 353 says: "Py_intptr_t needs to be the same size as void*, and Py_ssize_t the same size as size_t. These could differ, e.g. on machines where pointers have segment and offset." |
