[Python-3000] iostack and Oh Oh

[tomer filiba]

no, because i use the remote isinstance. the code i gave was just a
"how to". the real code would be more like:

def __isinstance__(self, types):
    return self.sync_request("isinstance", types)

and then
isinstance(conn.modules.sys.path, conn.modules.__builtin__.list) # True

(of course that's in RPyC notation. in RPyC you get access to the sevrer's
module namespace)
