No (not really). Instead, it combines the hash of the target object with the address of the function object. The hash function of the method object, in itself, cannot raise this overflow error. However, it involves hash(p.im_self). So if Script_Category.__hash__ is implemented as you show below, this error might occur. > >>> class X(object): > ... def __hash__(self): return id(self) > ... > >>> hash (X()) > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> > OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int Yes, this comes from id() now always returning positive integers, which might be a long if the object pointer is > MAXINT I think both instance_hash and slot_tp_hash should be changed to just truncate long ints to the range LONG_MIN..LONG_MAX Notice that this error could have occurred already in 2.4, on a 64-bit system where sizeof(void*) > sizeof(long) (i.e. on Win64).
