This is based on your patch, especially tests. But I believe that this simplified version is now ok. Strictly speaking, new docs lie for some broken int's subclasses like:

class BadInt(int):
    def __index__(self):
        return 42

We need to fix also concat/iconcat. But I would prefer to do this in a separate PR.
