If someone tried to check if a proxied class implemented an interface, the
check would fail to recognize that it's a class and use it's __implements__
attribute because isinstance doesn't give correct answers for proxied objects,
at least in 2.2.

This is fairly moot now because we don't use classes as components and pretty
much never care what interfaces they implement.
