It would be nice to standardize on one of (PyNumber_Long, PyNumber_Int) 
and document the other as deprecated.

Maybe it would make more sense to stick with PyNumber_Long and deprecate 
PyNumber_Int, though?  It would make 2.x -> 3.x transitions easier, and 
would be consistent with some of the rest of the API:  we seem to be 
using PyLong_Check in preference to PyInt_Check in current code...
