Just trying to clarify the focus: would you like to see any of these applied to 2.6? To me, it's clear that they are out of scope now, as they don't fix bugs.

There are some minor bugs in longobject.c that I think should be applied to 2.6.1 and 3.0.1 (not worth it for 3.0). I'll try to put together a separate patch containing these. They're mostly either missing casts or places where int should have been changed to Py_ssize_t.

numbits shouldn't go into 2.6 or 3.0.
