I reviewed the patch and added a comment on it, but since the point 
may be controversial I had better air it here for discussion: in 2.4, 
property(fset=acallable) does work (maybe silly, but it does make a 
write-only property) -- with the patch as given, it would stop 
working (due to attempts to get __doc__ from the None value of fget); 
I think we should ensure it keeps working (and add a unit test to 
that effect).
