---------------------------+----------------------------------
The classes `integer.pyx` and `real_double.pyx` use `hook_tp_functions()`
to change `tp_new` and `tp_dealloc` at run-time. With Cython, such hacks
are not needed: one can just define `__new__` and `__dealloc__` and things
should "just work".
Some hackery is still needed because these types also disable garbage
collection by changing `tp_flags` and there is no clean Cython interface
to do this.
