Comment:
There is a double problem here - the code in question should use `getattr`
on the super object, not `__getattr__` which doesn't exist.
However, I'm proposing we remove it altogether - the point of the code is
to aid debugging in an obscure case, but actually massively hinders
debugging in a (probably) vastly more common case. See

I imagine your approach is fine, but I'd prefer not to implement
`__getattribute__` unless we really need it, and it seems overkill here.
