I think that's expected behaviour. Note that int vs float behaves in the same way as float vs complex:
>>> class xint(int):
... def __radd__(self, other):
... print "__radd__"
... return 42
...
>>> 3 + xint(5)
__radd__
42
>>> 3.0 + xint(5) # xint.__radd__ not called.
8.0
As with your example, the float.__add__ method is happy to deal with an int or an instance of any subclass of int.
