At some point we added a way to do it (basically you can do it
yourself, by writing a one-line function in C and calling it). We no
longer do that: it's too much of a mess if you start ha
Well, I know that Python uses references, so that wouldn't be possible in

cpython 3.3.4: pypy 2.1.0 beta py3 mode: <1ms
is someone here interested in getting to the bottom of it?
or getting pypy
