When is a __dict__ not a __dict__?

[Derek Fountain]

Am I correct in thinking that a Python object which comes from a bit of C
code doesn't have a __dict__ attribute? I'm trying to poke around inside
the objects which control the expat XML parser, but they don't seem to have
__dict__s.

It depends on the object. Some do, many don't.
