Still to do
-----------
-More performance work -- one particular test, test_descr.inherits(),
-is still about 50% slower with dynamic classes. :-( The approach of
-choice would be:
-
- Add a list of weak refs to derived classes to each dynamic
- class, and trap setattr+delattr on the base class so that they
- update the tp_XXX slot in each derived class when the base class
- __XXX__ gets set or deleted. More work, but more gain (zero waste
- in slot_tp_XXX when __XXX__ is not overridden).
-
Add __del__ handlers?
Allow assignment to __bases__ and __dict__?
