[issue37436] os.path.isfile() with big number cause OverflowError: fd is greater than maximum

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

This issue reminds me bpo-33721:

"os.path functions that return a boolean result like exists(), lexists(), isdir(), isfile(), islink(), and ismount() now return False instead of raising ValueError or its subclasses UnicodeEncodeError and UnicodeDecodeError for paths that contain characters or bytes unrepresentable at the OS level. (Contributed by Serhiy Storchaka in bpo-33721.)"
