My typelib.py module does (available at
http://gotools.sourceforge.net/sgflib in the sgflib.tgz archive). It defines
classes which emulate most of the Python built-in types (duplicating
functionality in UserList and UserDict, I know; I wrote it before I
"discovered" these two standard modules :). Multiple inheritance is emplyed
for common functionality reuse. For example, both the Number and String
classes support the "%" (modulo, or string formatting) operator, so that
functionality is implemented in the ModMixin class, which is inherited by
both classes along with other superclasses:

    class Number(SuperType, AddMulMixin, ModMixin):

    class Sequence(Container, AddMulMixin):

    class String(Sequence, ModMixin):

Hope this helps.
