Force zlib.crc32 and zlib.adler32 to return a signed integer on all platforms
regardless of the native sizeof(long) used in the integer object.
This somewhat odd behavior of returning a signed is maintained in 2.x for
compatibility reasons of always returning an integer rather than a long object.
Fixes Issue1202 for Python 2.6
