for now. I expect that some warts will only be really debugged when
we try to use this for some, eh, interesting types such as tuples. ***
+ There was a sequel to the __new__ story (see checkins). There
+ still is a problem: object.__new__ now no longer exists, because
+ it was inherited by certain extension types that could break. But
+ now when I write
+
+ class C(object):
+ def __new__(cls, *args):
+ "How do I call the default __new__ implementation???"

More -- I'm sure new issues will crop up as we go.
