Summary: docs suggest no cyclic garbage collectio

Initial Comment:
http://python.sourceforge.net/devel-docs/ext/refcounts.html

Section 1.10 is a bit out of date -- it would lead some
readers to believe that Python doesn't collect cyclical
garbage.

I must be missing something; what makes you think this

Marked pending awaiting further information.
