I am afraid we have conflicting viewpoints. You are saying that upgrading Python broke code, and I agree it’s a bad thing. Usually such regression reports are accepted and fixed.

In this case however, the code was already broken in the previous version, it was only working because of a problem in the implementation. So from the viewpoint of GI users, it’s a regression, but from the viewpoint of Python the 2.7 behavior fixes a regression in 2.6. It is not supported to find magic methods (“__name__”) on instances.
