Bug fixed:

  When an integer too large to fit in a 32-bit integer was provided as
  a 32-bit-integer BTree key or value on 64-bit machines, an
  OverflowError was raised. Now a TypeError is raised.

 - Passing keys or values outside the range of 32-bit ints on 64-bit
   platforms led to undetected overflow errors. Now these cases cause
-  Overflow errors to be raised.
