Julien Palard added the comment:

Problem looks mainly due to the __setattr__ done on a different type than the 
getattr, and the cache of PyType_Lookup:

 - type_setattro will be called with Foo, "x", and the value to set
 - type_getattro will be called with FooProxy, "x"

The timeline (with my weird_without_interactive.py) is:

 - type_setattro is called on Foo for attr "x" with the instance of Bar
 - type_getattro is called on FooProxy for attr "x" (the `proxy.x` line)
     During this type_getattro, the instance of Bar is cached in PyType_Lookup 
for (FooProxy, "x")
 - type_setattro is called on Foo for attr "x" with the value 0
     During this call, insertdict will legitimately call DECREF on the Bar 
instance, which is deleted
 - type_getattro is called on FooProxy with attr "x" for the print()
     During this call, PyType_Lookup will cache hit for (FooProxy, x) with the 
old reference to the instance of Bar
