For the record (and to make myself feel a bit better about how I could have introduced this bug in the first place :-) the infinite recursion is only obvious in Python 2.6, not 2.4 or 2.5. Under 2.4 and 2.5 the 'recursion depth exceeded' error is swallowed and the code somehow appears to work fine.
Note:

(In [11799]) Fixed #12336 - infinite recursion in dir(UserSettingsHolder)
This is a regression introduced in trunk, so it does not need to be backported.
Thanks to miracle2k for the report.
