A number of projects end up redefining Python classes that
try to emulate the raw integers of C, which is a pain to do
properly in Python. I think that a general-purpose 'mint'
class would be generally useful.

Writing them in Python is a bit of a pain
(http://codespeak.net/svn/pypy/trunk/src/pypy/objspace/std/restricted_int.py).
Pyrex seems to be a good way to generate it as a extension
module
(http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/misc/machineint.pyx).
