>From Objects/typeobject.c:
/* The condition below could use some explanation.
It appears that tp_new is not inherited for static types
whose base class is 'object'; this seems to be a precaution
so that old extension types don't suddenly become
callable (object.__new__ wouldn't insure the invariants
that the extension type's own factory function ensures).
Heap types, of course, are under our control, so they do
inherit tp_new; static extension types that specify some
other built-in type as the default also
inherit object.__new__. */
if (base != &PyBaseObject_Type ||
(type->tp_flags & Py_TPFLAGS_HEAPTYPE)) {
if (type->tp_new == NULL)
type->tp_new = base->tp_new;
}
