[issue5322] Python 2.6 object.__new__ argument calling autodetection faulty

[Trundle]

Trundle <andysmuell at hammerhartes.de> added the comment:

The problem is that `type_setattro()` sets the new "__new__" attribute
in the type's dict (through `PyObject_GenericSetAttr()`), but the
corresponding slot will never be updated if the new "__new__" is a
PyCFunction.

The affected code in `update_one_slot()` was added by Guido van Rossum
in r28090, so maybe he would like to comment on that.
