>From what I can see, the original patch changed

... and the *dict* dictionary is the namespace containing definitions for class 
body and is copied to a standard dictionary to become the __dict__ attribute

into this

... and the *dict* dictionary is copied to the namespace containing definitions 
for the class body, which is referenced by the __dict__ attribute

so that the documentation avoids saying that the attribute is a dictionary, 
instead saying it just references a dictionary. However, current documentation 
says that

... it may be copied or wrapped before becoming the __dict__ attribute

which implies some sort of change already. In this case, is the patch for the 
functions page still applicable?
