[Python-Dev] Re: Revised Proposal: thread.get_dict

[Edward Loper]

Is this also intended for use as a base class?  In particular, it seems 
like if I have a class Foo, then I can make a thread-local version with 
the following (as long as Foo doesn't rely on overriding 
__getattribute__/__setattr__).

    class LocalFoo(local, Foo): pass

Is that right?  (I can see how it works in the Python implementation, 
but don't know enough about extensions to see if that translates 
directly to the c implementation.)

Actually, does local.__init__() need a call to super(self, 
local).__init__() to make this work?
