I believe that the PEP 3119 example doesn't work (I've confirmed something
simpler) but I have a feeling that the uses of __instancecheck__ in
typing.py are actually okay. For example, isinstance(42, typing.Any)
correctly calls _SpecialForm.__instancecheck__ -- because Any is not a
type, it's an instance of typing._SpecialForm so it all works out
correctly. (I haven't checked out the other -- @Serhiy do you have time to
look into that one?)
