Subject: [PATCH] Test ability to manipulate a daughter class from its base
 class wrapper

Even in the case of just creating a `DerivedClass` this test says:
```
swig/python detected a memory leak of type 'DerivedClass *', no destructor found.
```
even though the destructor is defined in the base class.
