I'm confused. Do you mean that
getattr(obj, "somemethod")(...)
does something different than
obj.somemethod(...)
with new style class instances? Doesn't getattr search the __dict__'s along the __mro__ list?
Yes, but getattr(obj, ... ALSO searches obj itself, which is what we're trying to avoid here.
getattr(type(obj), ... OTOH has a DIFFERENT problem -- it ALSO searches type(type(obj)), the metaclass, which we DON'T want.
