A hard crash seems wrong to me, and I'm not convinced yet that checking that 
the type of the attribute name is exactly string is correct.

Found while debugging a crash in PyObjC's testsuite, PyObjC uses a subclass of 
str to represent Objective-C strings.  Using such instances works fine in 
practice, but causes a crash in a --with-pydebug build due to this assertion.
