well... null is an invalid meta class. But we ned one and the global
meta class is used to set the per instance meta class. That means if the
global meta class is changed and the current meta class of the object is
"delegted", then the global meta class becomes the new current meta class.

this works, because at this point the meta class for the class is not
yet set.. since there is no instance yet. So if you change the global
meta class and then make an instance, then you get the global metaclass
as current meta class for the current instance.
so it is two different effects
