All the Mac toolbox objects (Windows, Dialogs, Controls, Menus and a
zillion more), All the Windows HANDLEs, all the MFC objects (although
they might be a bit more difficult), the objects in the X11 and Motif
modules, the pyexpat parser object, *dbm objects, dlmodule objects,
mpz objects, zlib objects, SGI cl and al objects....

Enough examples? :-)
