 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

+    object in the list is kept alive too, simply by virtue of being in
+    the list.
