Since object.__getattribute__ is the hook that implements the entire
attribute lookup protocol, *all* attributes are technically retrieved
via __getattribute__ (which is why overriding it correctly can be such
a PITA). That's also the hook type() overrides to make class attribute
lookup differ from ordinary instance lookup.

Cheers,
Nick.
