Subject: Fix a compiler warning in _randommodule.c (#141058)
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4ac16dd10950fad2d3e58e8b0ba5f2e621af3cc1;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

Fix a compiler warning in _randommodule.c (#141058)

The test just before the cast ensures that the cast cannot overflow.

Fix the warning on 32-bit Windows:

    Modules\_randommodule.c(525,28): warning C4244: '=': conversion
    from 'uint64_t' to 'Py_ssize_t', possible loss of data
