I am gradually making progress with my binary floating-point software,
but have had to rewrite several times as I have forgotten most of the
details of how to do it!  After 30 years, I can't say I am surprised.

But I need to clean up workspace when a class (not object) is
deallocated.  I can't easily use attributes, as people suggested,
because there is no anonymous storage built-in type.  I could subvert
one of the existing storage types (buffer, string etc.), but that is
unclean.  And I could write one, but that is excessive.

So far, I have been unable to track down how to get something called
when a class is destroyed.  The obvious attempts all didn't work, in
a variety of ways.  Surely there must be a method?  This could be in
either Python or C.

Thanks.
