R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

OK, I've looked at the patch now.  (1) it needs unit tests.  (2) a py3k port 
would be helpful, since the code is very different in py3k, and we are now 
applying patches first to the py3k branch and then backporting.

I think this can be considered a bug (the ever-expanding cache), so I'm OK with 
applying this in 2.7.1 once it has unit tests.

Note that using _MAXCACHE (leading underscore) and not documenting it follows 
the 're' model, so that is the best choice.
