list(xrange(sys.maxint / 4)) test. Changed 4 to 2. The belief is that this test intended to trigger a bit of code in listobject.c's NRESIZE macro that's looking for arithmetic overflow. As written, it doesn't achieve that, though, and leaves it up to the platform realloc() as to whether it wants to allocate 2 gigabytes. Some platforms say "sure!", although they don't appear to mean it, and disaster ensues. Changing 4 to 2 (just barely) manages to trigger the arithmetic overflow test instead, leaving the platform realloc() out of it.
