Summary: get_refer{ent,rer}s() doesn't use `is'

Initial Comment:
in Python 2.2b2 as packaged by debian,
gc.get_referents() seems to be using equality testing
rather than identity testing to find referents.  Example:

>>> l = [0,3,2,{},]
>>> gc.get_referents({})
[Type help() for interactive help, or help(object) for
help about object., [0, 3, 2, {}]]


The list should not have appeared in the result.

Yep!  That patch fixes the problem with getting answers I
didn't want *and* it fixes the seg faults!

Now I'm making faster progress on diagnosing memory usage in
Mojo Nation.  Whoo-hoo!
