I share Paul's concern about somebody using this (mis-?)feature and being unnecessarily broken.  However, such a restriction would have prevented the segfault that was reported and fixed in bpo-31577, and would save any other users of PyNumber_Divmod from having to implement the same kind of checks.

Does anyone have an example of a legitimate use for the current behavior?
