Seems like inheriting from the same interface twice causes problems.
ComboBoxModel is a subinterface of ListModel.
The following code should work but doesn't:

from javax.swing import ListModel
from javax.swing import ComboBoxModel

class A(ListModel): pass
class B(A, ComboBoxModel): pass
class C(B): pass

TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases
    Cannot create a consistent method resolution
order (MRO) for bases B[<class '__main__.A'>, <type
'org.python.proxies.__main__$B$2'>]

What I really can't understand is why it only barfs at "class C(...)"
and not when creating the "problem" type (B).

The root cause of this was B's mro incorrectly contained B's proxy class 
twice. This is fixed in r6950
