Since Zope 3X requires 2.3.3 (or later), that's not *terribly* interesting,
but this is:

Could you (or anyone else on OS X with Jack's 2.3.3) please try this
standalone Python script?

"""
from zope.hookable import hookable

def f():
    return 'OK'

g = hookable(f)
print g()
"""

I expect that to print

OK

and it does for me in a Zope3 checkout using Python 2.3.3 (albeit on
Windows).

So it gets even more bizarre <wink>.
