Thanks for the response. I was meaning to write back earlier, but I've been spending my free Python time in the evenings reimplementing what I'm doing to work more correctly. I'm guessing before the code object representing the class body gets run, __build_class__ is establishing various dunders such as __name__, __qual_name__, and __module__. I haven't fully penetrated that, but I also took an embarrassingly long amount of time to fully comprehend LOAD_NAME versus LOAD_FAST versus LOAD_GLOBAL... -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
