a very far-fetched bug...

>>> slice(-3058, 0, -1).indices(20)
(-1, 5, -1)
>>> slice(-30589138798749473891743819L, 0, -1).indices(20)
(0, 5, -1)

this is due to _PyEval_SliceIndex() which "rounds" very large negative 
values up to 0.  Of course I don't know who would care, because in both 
cases 'range(*slice(...).indices(20))' returns an empty list.
