In general, only those types which you also use as constructors are builtin. I.e. you would write bool(foo) (where foo is a variable), but you would not write classobj("bar") (to create a class named "bar"). That you can also use it for a type test is a side-effect. Some more types are available in the types module. In this case, you can use types. In this case, types.ClassType would do the trick.
