In your case I suspect that the tp_free is inherited from the tp_base which is probably 'int'. I don't see how to "fix" typeobject.c, because I'm not sure that there is a solution that would do the right thing in all cases at this level. I would suggest that you just force the tp_alloc/tp_free that you want in your static types instead. That's what occurs for example if you build a similar inheritance hierarchy with classes defined in Python: these classes are then 'heap types', so they always get the generic tp_alloc/tp_free before PyType_Ready() has a chance to see them.
