get() method; just calling them is sufficient. (There was a get() method
for this in an early version of the implementation.)

Testing that a weak reference object is still live should be done
-using the expression \code{\var{ref}.get() is not None}. Normally,
+using the expression \code{\var{ref}() is not None}. Normally,
application code that needs to use a reference object should follow
this pattern:
\begin{verbatim}
-o = ref.get()
+o = ref()
if o is None:
# referent has been garbage collected
print "Object has been allocated; can't frobnicate."
_id2obj_dict[id(obj)] = obj
def id2obj(id):
- return _id2obj_dict.get(id)
+ return _id2obj_dict(id)
