I *think* range uses long internally, so 9999999999 should be okay on an
LP64 machine.  Except that of course the range() result must also fit in
memory: on a 64-bit machine range(9999999999) would need more than 300
Gb of memory.  (That's 32 bytes per entry:  24 bytes for each integer
and 8 bytes for the list pointer.)
