I noticed this failure in test_bytes, running with 2.7.2a1 standalone JAR:

======================================================================
ERROR: test_repeat (__main__.ByteArrayTest)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Jeff\Documents\Jython\272b-trial\Lib\test\test_bytes.py", line 233, in test_repeat

    lambda: b * sys.maxsize)
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: arraycopy: last destination index 2147483646 out of bounds for byte[2147483645]

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Note that the apparent array size 2147483645 is the result of b*sys.maxsize, where len(b) is 3, and a lossy long to int conversion, taking place in org.python.core.BaseBytes.repeatImpl(int). We should be comparing first with sys.maxsize.

In our tests this is usually masked by a MemoryError, but for some reason not in standalone.

Also look elsewhere in BaseBytes and PyByteArray for other places we allocate an array without checking the size.
