Here's the issue with pickle: with this patch, the pickle of a long using pickle protocol 0 under 2.x can't be read by Python 3.x, because (1) the pickled long includes a trailing L, and (2) unpickling goes via a call to PyLong_FromString. Maybe the simplest thing is to continue to let int('3L') be valid.
