Summary: jython slice behavior differs from python in __getattr__

Initial Comment:
Bug:  Jython only forwards slice objects to __getitem__ 
when __getattr__('__getslice__') raises an AttributeError, 
which is different than Python.  Python forwards a slice 
object to __getitem__ when __getattr__('__getslice__') 
raises ANY error.

Jython needs to forward a slice object to __getitem__ 
whenever __getattr__('__getslice__') raises an error to 
be compatible.

Details with Code are attached...
