Yes, I see, here is an example, it's using twisted, but I think it's a 
python problem (that's why I wrote here). The code for the parent 
classes is here 
(http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/browser/trunk/twisted/words/xish/xmlstream.py)

xmlstream.XmlStreamFactory in the following code is supposed to be 
MyFactory in the previous example, and MyXmlFactory is supposed to be 
(xmlstream.XmlStreamFactory. If you uncomment the two commented lines in 
MyXmlStreamFactory it works, if they are commented it doesn't. The 
parent class (XmlStreamFactory) inherits from two classes :

   XmlStreamFactoryMixin (where args and kwargs are defined)
   and
   protocol.ReconnectingClientFactory.

I think it may be because of the multiple inheritance that I'm getting 
this, maybe since the child class doesn't define the __init__() method.


To test, run the following code in one terminal, and run :

    netcat localhost 4321

in another (it will crash right away with the lines commented).

Thanks,
Gabriel
