Hmm, true.  But at least numpy.int instances pass an isinstance(..., int) check, right?  But that still leaves numpy.int<anything other than 32> as a problem on 32-bit systems and Windows, and similarly for 64-bit systems.

Also true;  shame we can't fix this in 2.x.

I'll commit the isinstance(int, long) fix and your tests, since it's both safe and a clear improvement on the current behaviour.
