BUG: classobject.c

Well. All I know is that the result of the PyObject_GetAttrString is
returning an object with a refcount of 1. And since PyString_AS_STRING
returns a pointer within the PyStringObject struct, then the
Py_XDECREF causes this to become invalid. Perhaps the Py_XDECREF should
be moved down to the line before the return.

Perhaps I've done something wrong. But I'm not sure how. If the
refcount is one, it tends to suggest that this is a new reference.
(i.e. the object didn't exist previously.) Do all PyMethodObjects
have an attribute called '__name__'?
