Since gc eventually +runs tp_clear on all unreachable objects, if an unreachable object is +resurrected then tp_clear will eventually be called on it (or may already +have been called before resurrection). At best (and this has been an +historically common bug), tp_clear empties an instance's __dict__, and +"impossible" AttributeErrors result.

The chief example is the callback +attached to a reachable weakref W to an unreachable object O. Since O is +going away, and W is still alive, the callback must be invoked. Because W +is still alive, everything reachable from its callback is also reachable, +so it's also safe to invoke the callback (although that's trickier than it +sounds, since other reachable weakrefs to other unreachable objects may +still exist, and be accessible to the callback -- there are lots of painful +details like this covered in the rest of this file). + +Python 2.4/2.3.5 +================ + +The "Before 2.3.3" section below turned out to be wrong in some ways, but +I'm leaving it as-is because it's more right than wrong, and serves as a +wonderful example of how painful analysis can miss not only the forest for +the trees, but also miss the trees for the aphids sucking the trees +dry <wink>. + +The primary thing it missed is that when a weakref to a piece of cyclic +trash (CT) exists, then any call to any Python code whatsoever can end up +materializing a strong reference to that weakref's CT referent, and so +possibly resurrect an insane object (one for which cyclic gc has called-- or +will call before it's done --tp_clear()).
