but shouldn't. This is one of the failures in metaclass() in test_descr. The other metaclass related test failure i'm aware of seems to be due to attribute differences (in this case function objects not having __get__) which also show up in the checker22 output, so i assume that problem will get cleaned up as attribute differences are resolved. For the type(x) problem, i wonder if its more subtle than just special casing the arg signature in PyType.invoke_new_() and not calling dispatch__init__()? - kz

I ran into this bug while trying to get CherryPy 3 running. Have you looked closer at the problem? Your simple solution sounds pretty good to me.

I tried it out after posting the bug report, but it caused other regressions. I guess i could add some type checks in addition to the arg signature, but it feels a bit kludgy, and i'm wondering if there's a better approach. Suggestions welcome. - kz

I need this bug fix to be able to take the next step in getting CherryPy3 running on Jython, so I will look into it. I won't be able to dig into the code for a while though...

I will look into this over the weekend, and indeed it is special cased in CPython.

Eric Dobbs was looking at this during the spring. I've just pinged him to see how far he got.

this should be fixed in r3140.

Verified that fixed the failing test case from test_descr. Also applied to 2.3 in r3142. - kz
