Yikes, you're right! Well, I figured out a modification to my original
__str__ code that works for old and new-style classes which doesn't
overwrite the __class__.__dict__:
class J(object):
name = ''
value = ''
def __str__(self):
vals = dict(self.__class__.__dict__)
vals.update(self.__dict__)
return 'name="%(name)s" value="%(value)s' % vals

Oh, that looks nice and clean. I like it.
I also found a recipe in the Python cookbook that works great for
"dumping" objects:

Thanks!
