[pypy-issue] [issue1472] ast.Class are user-defined, modifiable on CPython

[Armin Rigo]

New submission from Armin Rigo <armin.rigo at gmail.com>:

In CPython, the classes in the 'ast' module are defined in C but as user
classes.  This makes them user-modifiable.  See
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16310661 .  Should we fix it?

And, as importantly: is this trick used elsewhere?
