[STINNER Victor]

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

I reopen the issue. The win32 job of Azure Pipelines now logs a compiler warning:

Objects\longobject.c(412,5): warning C4244:  'function': conversion from 'unsigned long' to 'sdigit', possible loss of data
Objects\longobject.c(420,5): warning C4244:  'function': conversion from 'unsigned __int64' to 'sdigit', possible loss of data
