Type/class unification and new-style classes
+ - The new builtin dictionary() constructor, and dictionary type, have
+ been renamed to dict. This reflects a decade of common usage.
+
- New-style classes can now have a __del__ method, which is called
when the instance is deleted (just like for classic classes).
