[Checkins] SVN: zope.interface/trunk/src/zope/interface/interface.py using `__setattr__` instead of `property` speeds up zope start-up time again, since getting the value for `__bases__` through `__dict__` adds up with almost 200.000 calls; of course, there's some overhead, since `__setattr__` gets called for the other attributes as well, but overall start-up is still faster

of course — i just did (in r82877).  and btw, i hadn't reverted it  
right away (but merely answered jim's questions), since it wasn't  
really clear if i should...
