The code restored by 29159-index-fallback.patch is slightly different from the code before issue27704, but the patch LGTM except that arguments of assertEqual are in reversed order.

> Can you explain what your patch does?  I don't understand why you single out the OverflowError.  When is __index__ expected to raise it?

PyNumber_AsSsize_t(arg, PyExc_OverflowError) raises an OverflowError when the result of __index__ don't fit in Py_ssize_t.

> I wonder if we could check for buffer protocol support before detecting an integer argument?

This would fix an issue with NumPy arrays, but it is much harder to implement.
