Actually, I did this and committed a change (to pydb) before posting
any of these queries. ;-)

If "a number of standard library APIs" are doing the *same* thing,
then shouldn't this exposed as a common routine?

If on the other hand, by "a number" you mean "one" as in linecache --
1 *is* a number too! -- then perhaps the relevant code that is buried
inside the "updatecache" should be exposed on its own.  (As a side
benefit that code can be tested separately too!)

Should I file a feature request for this?
