  Issue #1533: fix inconsistency in range function argument processing:
  any non-float non-integer argument is now converted to an integer (if
  possible) using its __int__ method.  Previously, only small arguments
  were treated this way; larger arguments (those whose __int__ was
  outside the range of a C long) would produce a TypeError.

  Patch by Alexander Belopolsky (with minor modifications).
