Comment:

 I think there are still some problems with this.  For example:

 1. Pickling does not work for these objects -- one needs to define a
 proper !__reduce!__ method.

 2. I don't think we should continue the use of !__ attributes as they just
 cause problems.  For example, the code in here has to set attributes like
 _PowerSeriesRing_generic!__power_series_class in subclasses.

 3. There are formating issues in some of the docstrings like '_latex_'

 4. We shouldn't have a 'MPowerSeriesRing' -- that functionality should
 just be in PowerSeriesRing.  MPolynomialRing was deprecated for the same
 reason a long time ago.
