"""
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.
