On 3.5.2 and 3.5.3, but not 3.4.3 or 2.7.10 (Windows 64-bit), the third line causes Python to crash with exit code 0xC0000417.
import msvcrt
fp = open('file.txt', 'w')
msvcrt.locking(fp.fileno(), msvcrt.LK_NBLCK, -1)
print('End')
I came across this in the portalocker module. I don't think -1 is a valid third argument, but it doesn't raise an exception on Python 3.4 or 2.7.

I ran it on AppVeyor to double check, the crash appears from 3.5 onwards as I saw on my computer. https://ci.appveyor.com/project/RazerM/issue29392/build/3 |

The old CRT doesn't do any parameter validation on the nbytes parameter. It just passes it directly to Windows LockFile as follows:
LockFile((HANDLE)_get_osfhandle(fh), lockoffset, 0L, nbytes, 0L)
which is locking (DWORD)-1 bytes, i.e. 0xFFFFFFFF. This allows users to sneakily lock more than 2 GiB by passing a negative value. Python could do its own validation in 2.7 to raise an exception for negative values, but I think it's too late; that ship has sailed.
The parameter is validated by the new CRT in 3.5+, which limits nbytes to non-negative values. There we need the _Py_BEGIN_SUPPRESS_IPH and _Py_END_SUPPRESS_IPH macros to handle the failed call without crashing the process.
