Replace BadInternalCall with TypeError. Add a test case. Fix whitespace.

Just van Rossum showed a weird, but clever way for pure python code to
trigger the BadInternalCall.  The C code had assumed that calling a class
constructor would return an instance of that class; however, classes that
abuse __new__ can invalidate that assumption.
