Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Consider the following code

cpdef bint f(long x):
	return bool(x)

this correctly returns True if x ≠ 0 and False otherwise, but needs to pass to Python.

On the other hand, this

cpdef bint f(long x):
	return x

incorrectly returns False for 2**32.

Describe the solution you'd like.

Optimize the former.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

Currently return x != 0 works.
