Leo's patch makes Super2.__init__ return java.lang.Object's constructor.  Calling Super2.__init__(self) from pySubclass only works because PyReflectedConstructor's __call__ interally looks up the proxy class of self which has access to the protected constructor.  I don't think that's any better than the problem the patch fixes.  It exposes incorrect information and it's really confusing code.

We're essentially hosed here because subclasses calling protected constructors is a partial visibility concept Python just doesn't have.  Maybe we could make the Python super builtin give access to the proxy class's dict if called with a PyJavaClass?
