Ok, you mean generator function, which produces generators, not generators 
themselves. So what you want is a new isgenfunc function. That makes more 
sense, in a sense, since I can see that you would want to wrap genfuncs 
differently from regular funcs. But then I wonder why you don't use a 
different decorator since you know when you are writing a generator 
function.
