Issue 1495033: int/long assume that the buffer ends in \0 => CRASH (original) (raw)

But it doesn't, always.

int(buffer('123a', 0, 3)) Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ? ValueError: invalid literal for int(): 123a

Hmmmmmm...well if that works, how about this one:

import array; int(buffer(array.array('c', []))) SEGFAULT

Ah, there we go, a nice crasher.
