While I would be happy to see this issue finally closed, but it's up to Georg if this goes into 3.3 or not as one could argue it's a feature or a bugfix/oversight.

As for the actual fix, classic classes shouldn't hold back a good solution since that is a 2.x thing that only affects Python 2.4 which is too old to worry about; I think it's an acceptable limitation.
