antocuni: note also the story about user (Python-level) subclasses, which have their own dealloc---always subtype_dealloc I think

I'm pretty sure that you can confuse everything if you try to make classes in C and tweak their attributes *but* they are heap types
<arigato>
I mean, you can probably make it work correctly, but the default is probably wrong
<arigato>
I would not be surprized that the ctimer bug report is perfectly correct and nobody cares to fix it; always giving Py_tp_dealloc seems the sane thing

Hasn't Victor been trying to convert some internal Python types to heap types? Perhaps he will reply with some practical advice.
