I haven't looked at test_descr.py but the rest looks good to me.

I guess for the final version of Py3000 type_set_name() in typeobject.c
will not downgrade unicode strings to str8, but instead upgrade str8
objects to unicode.

Also now that PyObject_Unicode() tries __unicode__ first and then tp_str
should we rename all __unicode__ methods to __str__, or will __unicode__
stay?

Servus,
   Walter
