Another potential bug discovered in posixmodule.c in the function
posix_lchown:

posix_lchown(PyObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
        ...
 	int uid, gid;
        ...
 	if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "etii:lchown",
 	                      Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, &path,
 	                      &uid, &gid))
        ...
}

uid and gid could also cause over flow. Patch attached.

Hope some one can comment on the patch, thanks a lot!
