I did not mean to sound like I was lecturing you personally. Without taking a peek at the source, I would guess that the various uses of isinstance(<something>, int) are bugs, possibly replacing previous uses of type(<something>) is int, shortly after int subclassing was allowed. But that's just a guess. - Josiah _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
