Looks like it was fixed indeed, `NewType` is now a class. And I cannot reproduce it even on `3.10`:

```
Python 3.10.0 (default, Nov  1 2021, 10:24:06) [Clang 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.16)] on darwin

>>> import typing

>>> int | typing.cast
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for |: 'type' and 'function'

>>> int | typing.get_type_hints
Traceback (most recent call last):
