What does that mean for the results I get from PyLint in rpython mode? 
There is no way our program can work while using none of those keywords 
and builtins. If I would disable messages E12xx, are the other messages I 
get still reliable? In other words, if the program being checked is 
ordinary Python instead of Restricted Python, will the rpython checker be 
able to say something useful about it?

I saw some W12xx messages in files with E12xx messages, all of them are of 
this form:
W1201:<line>:<class>.__<name>__: special method __<name>__ has to be 
called explicitly

Bye,
