Segfault on enum declaration

從 libs/python/src/object/enum.cpp 中的 boost::python::objects::enum_base::add_value 和 boost/python/enum.hpp 中的 enum_::value 呼叫開始。在回報的 32 位元 Python 3.8 和 Boost 1.64 環境中，使用 future_fwd.hpp 中的 FutureTimeout 宣告，重現 src/pyfuture.cpp 中的匯出。完成標準是匯出 INT_MAX 不再導致 segfault，同時 enum 值仍然可用。

Hello,

I'm having an issue on our libqi-python project using boost-python 1.64, with Python 3.8 on a 32bits (x86) system. I could not find an existing issue related to this problem so I'm creating a new one.

In one of our files, we export an enum to python:

      boost::python::enum_<qi::FutureTimeout>("FutureTimeout")
          .value("None", qi::FutureTimeout_None)
          .value("Infinite", qi::FutureTimeout_Infinite);

with the enum being declared in our main project (libqi) at this line:

  enum FutureTimeout {
    FutureTimeout_Infinite = INT_MAX, // TODO: replace by numeric_limits<int>::max() when we get
                                      // rid of VS2013
    FutureTimeout_None     = 0,
  };

The crash occurs when we export the Infinite value of the enum which is set to INT_MAX. Weirdly enough it works fine on my host (Ubuntu 16.04 x86_64) but segfaults on one of our other 32 bits x86 system when cross-compiled.

Here is the backtrace when the crash occurs:

It seems the crash occurs from the enum_base::add_value function, at the Py_XDECREF(p->name) call. The object pointed by enum_object* p seems incorrect, with the name member having an invalid pointer value of 0x1.

From my investigations the size of int is 4 bytes on each system (therefore INT_MAX value is 2147483647 on both systems). I'm also pretty sure that it worked fine when when we had Python 3.5 on the 32 bits system.

Another thing is I tried changing the value from INT_MAX to INT_MAX / 2 and it seemed to fix the issue, but with INT_MAX / 2 + 1 and above, it started segfaulting again.

Thank you for your help.
