Jim and I worked through this, and ended up putting back the use of 'aq_acquire' to do the validation, precisely becuase *it* knows what the real container is (from guarded_getattr, you have to guess). Please verify that the head of the 2.7 branch resolves the issues you found.
Thanks very much for your work on this issue. I'm sorry I let it slide so long,
