Guido's right:  that change alone won't do any good.  Frame objects need to
be chased by gc too, else the cycle would survive.  However, adding frame
objects to gc caused a measurable slowdown, which I judged tolerable in 2.2
because 2.2 got enough non-bugfix speedup work to cancel it out (at the
time -- I expect we're losing again by now).
