Summary: First steps towards new super (PEP 367)

Initial Comment:
A half-assed start of an implementation for super.

This is lacking parser support; instead, for now, you have to have a keyword-only argument named super, e.g.

def foo(self, arg, *, super):
    return super.foo(arg) + 1

Note that the first version changes method lookup for bound method lookup but not yet for unbound method lookup.  E.g. if f is defined in class B, and class C derives from B, C().f returns a bound method object whose im_class attribute is set to B (as opposed to C as it used to be) but C.f returns an unbound method object with im_class set to C.  (I hope to this in a later version.)

Here is sup.py, a small demo of how this is supposed to work.
