Comment(by SimonKing):

 It turns out that all the patches can still not fix the problem. We also
 have to deal with `sage.structure.factory.UniqueFactory`.

 I suggest to add an option to `UniqueFactory`, that decides whether a
 strong or a weak cache is used. And I suggest to do this ''here'', because
 I don't want to create yet another ticket.

 The applications of `UniqueFactory` should mainly be in cases where weak
 references work. Therefore I suggest to use the weak cache by default - I
 am curious how many doc tests will fail...

 Coercion sucks.
