Bug report

In #114314 (3.13) I introduced a regression: set_type misuses PyType_GetDict by modifying it.

import ctypes intptr = ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_int) print(intptr._type_) # uncomment to hide the issue print(intptr._type_) intptr.set_type(ctypes.c_float) # a bad idea, but, it should set _type_ print(intptr._type_)
