       Convert a C :c:expr:`int` to a Python :class:`bool` object.
 
+      Be aware that this format requires an ``int`` argument.
+      Unlike most other contexts in C, variadic arguments are not coerced to
+      a suitable type automatically.
+      You can convert another type (for example, a pointer or a float) to a
