PMT Python Bug

When I go to pmt and back to Python with a dict ints are converted to
long. Is that on purpose?

import pmt

a = {‘asdf’: 34, ‘qwer’: 3.7}

In [26]: pmt.to_python(pmt.to_pmt(a))
Out[26]: {‘asdf’: 34L, ‘qwer’: 3.7}

PMTs don’t distinguish between 'int’s and 'long’s. (In fact, the
underlying call is pmt.to_long). So yes, that’s intended behaviour.
