Bug Description

Dear lxml developers!

In lxml.objectify:233

    def __getattr__(self, tag):
        u"""Return the (first) child with the given tag name. If no namespace
        is provided, the child will be looked up in the same one as self.
        """
        if is_special_method(tag):
            return object.__getattr__(self, tag)

the call to object.__getattr__ is incorrect.

            return object.__getattribute__(self, tag)

may work.

Cheers,
Volker

Actually, the whole special case is useless, given that "__getattr__" is never called when looking up special methods.
