The patch addresses most overflow errors in elementtree except for the problems in element_ass_subscr().

New patch with fixes for element_ass_subscr().

Serhiy, I'm truly sorry but for this and other issues you pinged -- I currently have zero bandwidth to invest in this. Feel free to ask around on pydev if there are other folks interested in reviewing patches and decisions w.r.t the etree module. I'm fine with your judgement otherwise.

Christian's patch fixes two things: integer overflow and memory leak. First I'll commit a fix for memory leak (with cleanup and tests). Integer overflow looks already fixed in recent releases, there is nothing to commit. This part should be applied only to old releases.

Here is updated patch for 3.4.

Added new overflow checks in element_resize(), some runtime checks are replaced with asserts (conditions are always true), check for buffer size is copied from 3.5, followed Eli's suggestions about nchildren and index.
