 *             Do not  expect for  instance `__VA_ARGS__` is  always available.
 *             We assume C99  for ruby itself but we don't  assume languages of

 *
 * ### Q&A ###
 *
 * - Q: How can a class have no super class?
 *
 * - A: `klass` could be a module.  Or it could be ::rb_cBasicObject.
 *
 * - Q: What do you mean by "raw" superclass?
 *
 * - A: This  is a  really good  question.  The  answer is  that this  function
 *      returns something  different from what  you would normally  expect.  On
 *      occasions  ruby  inserts  hidden  classes   in  a  hierarchy  of  class
 *      inheritance behind-the-scene.   Such classes are called  "iclass"es and
 *      distinguished  using  ::RUBY_T_ICLASS  in  C  level.   They  are  truly
 *      transparent from Ruby  level but can be accessed from  C, by using this
 *      API.
