When I want to rebuild the data from a xml file or database, my objects somehow need to know which references to other objects they hold.

OK, If you limit yourself to XML or a database then yes you will
need an ID and use the IDs as references. Thats why Pickle/Shelve
are so convenient for persistence - they don;t need the references,
you can just pickle the list of objects, or whatever.
