Improved new Py_TRACE_REFS gimmicks.
Arranged that all the objects exposed by __builtin__ appear in the list of all objects. I basically peed away two days tracking down a mystery leak in sys.gettotalrefcount() in a ZODB app (== tons of code), because the object leaking the references didn't appear in the sys.getobjects(0) list. The object happened to be False. Now False is in the list, along with other popular & previously missing leak candidates (like None). Alas, we still don't have a choke point covering *all* Python objects, so the list of all objects may still be incomplete.
