Thanks for the patches!

Well, class py-dict is not turned into a metaclass here, at least that's not
the intention. :) The superclass and metaclass of it are changed but py-dict
remains a non-metaclass class. So I think the actual error message is
incorrect, but something else is wrong.
The problem might be that you can not change the metaclasses of a class
using ensure-class. Could you please check if the call to ensure-class
without the metaclass change is accepted?
(ensure-class 'py-dict
:direct-superclasses (list 'py-core-object))
Thanks,
