 recurses until it chances upon a hash collision in a cache. I don't have
 any other explanation...

 Well we could test against this by modifying the behavior of
 `@cached_method` by adding a key with some dummy class like
 `CatchedMethodCalledNotReturned`, and if that class is the returned value,
 raise an error. Although I don't see why it should terminate if there is a
 hash collision because there should not be an equal key in the cache;
 unless something scarier is happening: `==` is `True` but the
 corresponding hashes aren't...
