  sys.getobjects(max[, type])
!     Return list of the most-recently allocated max objects, most recently
!     allocated first in the list, least-recently allocated last in the
!     list.  max=0 means no limit on list length.  If an optional type
!     object is passed, the list is also restricted to objects of that
!     type.  The return list itself, and some temp objects created just
!     to call sys.getobjects(), are excluded from the return list.

  sys.getobjects(max[, type])
!     Return list of the (no more than) max most-recently allocated objects,
!     most recently allocated first in the list, least-recently allocated
!     last in the list.  max=0 means no limit on list length.
!     If an optional type object is passed, the list is also restricted to
!     objects of that type.
!     The return list itself, and some temp objects created just to call
!     sys.getobjects(), are excluded from the return list.  Note that the
!     list returned is just another object, though, so may appear in the
!     return list the next time you call getobjects(); note that every
!     object in the list is kept alive too, simply by virtue of being in
!     the list.
