-+ # Now J and II are each in a self-cycle (as all new-style class
-+ # objects are, since their __mro__ points back to them). I holds
-+ # both a weak reference (I.wr) and a strong reference (I.J) to class
-+ # J. I is also in a cycle (I.wr points to a weakref that references
-+ # I.acallback). When we del these three, they all become trash, but
-+ # the cycles prevent any of them from getting cleaned up immediately.
-+ # Instead they have to wait for cyclic gc to deduce that they're
-+ # trash.
-+ #
-+ # gc used to call tp_clear on all of them, and the order in which
-+ # it does that is pretty accidental. The exact order in which we
-+ # built up these things manages to provoke gc into running tp_clear
-+ # in just the right order (I last). Calling tp_clear on II leaves
-+ # behind an insane class object (its __mro__ becomes NULL). Calling
-+ # tp_clear on J breaks its self-cycle, but J doesn't get deleted
-+ # just then because of the strong reference from I.J. Calling
-+ # tp_clear on I starts to clear I's __dict__, and just happens to
-+ # clear I.J first -- I.wr is still intact. That removes the last
-+ # reference to J, which triggers the weakref callback. The callback
-+ # tries to do "self.J", and instances of new-style classes look up
-+ # attributes ("J") in the class dict first. The class (II) wants to
-+ # search II.__mro__, but that's NULL. The result was a segfault in
-+ # a release build, and an assert failure in a debug build.

-+ # get cleared from I.__dict__ before 'wr', and 'J' was never in II's
-+ # __dict__, so the attribute isn't found. The difference is that
-+ # the old-style II doesn't have a NULL __mro__ (it doesn't have any
-+ # __mro__), so no segfault occurs. Instead it got:
-+ # test_callback_in_cycle_2 (__main__.ReferencesTestCase) ...
