also with regard to adding tests, consider the following scenario:
in the future, someone writes a patch for these functions, which
makes them not accept integer types anymore.
assuming the tests don't exist, the writer of the patch doesn't
realize the patch broke something, and so the patch is committed.
years later, when the patch is finally a part of the stable release,
it breaks a lot of code out there.

lastly, ISTM adding these tests would be quite simple anyway.
