Section 3.3.1 of the Language Reference says, " __new__() is a static method" But it's actually a class method since it's first argument is the class.

Logged In: YES user_id=6656 Argh! Confusing as it is, __new__ really *is* a static method: >>> class C(object): ... def __new__(cls, name, bases, ns): ... pass ... >>> C.__dict__['__new__'] <staticmethod object at 0x2de9d0> so please revert this.
