There's this field called tp_cache in type objects that's not
currently used...

Also Oren's ideas about a lookdict_namespace sounded interesting
(always interning keys, inserting failure markers, bouncing succeeding
lookups into the first slot examined, IIRC).

Finally, anyone planning on a new VM would be well advised to finish
off the ast-branch work, I'd suggest.
