+"""
+The gc module can still invoke arbitrary Python code and crash.
+This is an attack against _PyInstance_Lookup(), which is documented
+as follows:
+
+    The point of this routine is that it never calls arbitrary Python
+    code, so is always "safe":  all it does is dict lookups.
+
+But of course dict lookups can call arbitrary Python code.
+The following code causes mutation of the object graph during
+the call to has_finalizer() in gcmodule.c, and that might
+segfault.
