*
* ### 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.
