For a non-trivial patch we will need you to fill out copyright
assignment papers.  This patch is small enough that we can accept it,
but if you plan to do any more work on GDB, then it is good to get this
out of the way early; send me email off-list and I will get you started.

Also, we require ChangeLog entries for patches.  See the GNU Coding
Standards for information on writing those.

I think we should probably look at the value in valpy_int and valpy_long
and return the shortest possible of int, long, or long long.

The docs for this part of Python seem quite lacking.
