[New-bugs-announce] [issue7183] did 2.6.3 regress for some uses of the __doc__ property?

[Zooko O'Whielacronx]

New submission from Zooko O'Whielacronx <zooko at zooko.com>:

According to 
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boost1.38/+bug/457688 , 
Python 2.6.3 stopped working for something that Python 2.6.2 worked for, 
involving Boost.

Andrew Mitchell looked at the Python 2.6.3 release notes, saw 
http://bugs.python.org/issue5890 which was fixed by 
http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/release26-
maint/Objects/descrobject.c?r1=71756&r2=72302&pathrev=72302 .  Could this 
patch be causing this problem?
