  we try to use this for some, eh, interesting types such as tuples. ***
  
+     There was a sequel to the __new__ story (see checkins).  There
+     still is a problem: object.__new__ now no longer exists, because
+     it was inherited by certain extension types that could break.  But
+     now when I write
+ 
+         class C(object):
+             def __new__(cls, *args):
+                 "How do I call the default __new__ implementation???"
+ 
  More -- I'm sure new issues will crop up as we go.
