Here is a completely new patch. This approach uses the already existing tp_is_gc enquiry slot to signal garbage collection. The patch modifies the generator object to use this new mechanism. The patch keeps the old PyGen_NeedsFinalizing() API, but this can now go away, unless people think it might be used in extension modules (why do we always expose all those internal apis from the dll? I wonder.)
