This is actually a bit of a lie (not you Marius, the debugging print! :)

That first argument was a proxy so repr() and str() are both
transparent.  You need to print the type() of the first argument and
then it's clear a proxy was getting passed.

I just checked in a fix, which removes all proxies from the object's
__class__ before doing the issubclass() tests.
