There is no entry for 'l', which maps to 'long' according to 'long_converter' in clinic.py.

Patch attached for Doc/howto/clinic.rst.

If two issues are created on the tracker for the same issue, surely it's the *older* issue that is preserved, and the new one marked as duplicate and closed?

[birkenfeld]

Only if the older issue actually has more relevant content, which is not always the case.
