mutate an object while there is a buffer attached to it.
That is:
import array
a = array.array(...)
b = buffer(a)
for i in xrange(...):
a.extend(a[:])
print str(b)
... may cause you some problems (the a[:] bit was to pointer movement
movement on realloc). Those problems will depend on your platform.
