libshiboken: Overflow:

On maya 2017 I have the following error.

Replacing sys.maxint with maxint = 2 ** (struct.Struct('i').size * 8 - 1) - 1 works.

Can you post the exact error? How to reproduce it? And also, how come this fixes it?

Sorry about that, I just posted it quickly as I was fixing it.

So it's in the file timeplugin.py line 106
sys.maxintreturns 9223372036854775807

and trigger the following error:

# RuntimeWarning: libshiboken:

Whereas 2 ** (struct.Struct('i').size * 8 - 1) - 1 which computes C's maxint returns 2147483647
