I get around 200 errors out of the first module that I run pylint on. I 
cannot release
this source for you to test against. I will have to build a smaller example
that breaks otherwise we will have nothing concrete to work with.

My first attempt at a small example did not have the problem with this 
class.
However when I forgot to copy a __init__.py I did see the message:

__init__ method from a non direct base class    <logilab.astng.Yes 
object at 0xb7f8392c> is called

So a missing __init__.py is another way to get this message.

Am I right in guessing that this message means pylint/ast failed to find 
information? Is it
a place holder in the code?
