[issue14700] Integer overflow in classic string formatting

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Only one comment. test_formatting_huge_precision should use not sys.maxsize, but _testcapi.INT_MAX. Other tests can use _testcapi.PY_SSIZE_T_MAX.

I think this tests are worth to add for 3.3 and 3.4. Your old test for this bug (064c2d0483f8) actually does not test the bug on all plathforms.
