I am learning about metaclasses and there is something that confuses me.
I understand that if I define a __call__ method for a class, then instances of
the class become callable using function syntax:
class Foo(object):
... def __call__(self):
... print 'Called Foo'
...
f=Foo()

But why doesn't Foo.__call__ shadow type.__call__? Normally an instance
attribute takes precedence over a class attribute. Is it something
special about how function call syntax is handled internally, or do all
special methods work this way, or is there something else going
