That's not the right behavior, obviously.  Probably there is a problem 
with the version you've got, the way it was compiled, etc.  Can you 
build your own and run a "make test"...?

9-ns1% python
Python 2.2.2 (#1, Apr 27 2003, 18:57:32)
[GCC 2.95.4 20020320 [FreeBSD]] on freebsd4

 >>> int(1.0)
1
 >>> int(3.14)
3
