! Add __del__ handlers?  I asked for a motivation on python-dev and
! nobody piped up.  Yet I expect it will be asked for later.  *** Are
! there GC issues?  Doesn't the GC make an exception for classic classes
! with a __del__ handler?  This part is *not* yet dealt with. ***
  
  Assignment to __dict__.

! were some GC issues, but these have now also been dealt with, thanks
