I'm not sure anything should be done (e.g., it is "undefined behavior" to pass a negative value such as CHAR_MIN (if char type is signed) to a character classification function in C. Though EOF value (-1 traditionally) should be handled). If you want to explore it further; I've enumerated open questions in 2014 (inconsistent TypeError, ord(c) > 0x100, negative ints handling, etc) http://bugs.python.org/issue9770#msg221008
