This is broken. Unfortunately, you should assume that in IronPython 0.7.3 you can't override any methods from a CLS super type so that it will be seen from the CLS side.
FYI - It is possible in IronPython 0.7.3 to override a very small set of methods from a CLS super type in such a way that other CLS languages will see and be affected by those overrides. Looking over the code, the set of methods that work for this are exactly those needed to run the parrotbench benchmark - no more and no less. Now that you've reminded us of this issue, fixing the bug is high on our priority list and I'd expect this to be fixed in the next 1-2 weeks for 0.7.4. The basic design is in place to make this work for int.__cmp__ and a few other key methods so the work is just to extend that design to cover the general case.

I find that under IronPython that I am forced to explicitly add the OnPaint method to the paint message handler list.
