Fix from Greg Chapman from SF bug #695651: a complex subclass
constructor, when passed a single complex argument, returns the argument unchanged. This should be done only for the complex base class; a complex subclass should of course cast the value to the subclass in this case. The fix also revealed a segfault in complex_getnewargs(): the argument for the Py_BuildValue() format code "D" is the *address* of a Py_complex struct, not the value. (This corroborated by the API documentation.) I expect this needs to be backported to 2.2.3.
