Reassignment of 'getattr' leads to gpython crashing #202

Description

@xiaxinmeng

Reassigning getattr with getattr in a class and then using the attribute 'spam' triggers gpython crashing. See the following example. We test the example on the online gpython i.e., GO/wasm and Gopherjs. GO/wasm can well handle the test while it crashes on the Gopherjs.

test.py


class c(object):
    __getattr__ = getattr
c().spam

Output on Gopherjs (https://gpython.org/)

Gpython 3.4.0 running in your browser with gopherjs
>>> class c(object):
...     __getattr__ = getattr
... 
>>> c().spam
