graingert: not directly 'args_w' because that's not a python object, but likely something similar
<arigo_>
gc.get_referrers() takes a '*args' of arguments and apparently we don't have a special optimization for that, so instead we pack the arguments into a python tuple and then unpack that tuple into an RPython list
<arigo_>
the args_w in the source code is the RPython list
<arigo_>
(at least I think; I may be wrong about that)

in general you can't rely on get_referrers() not returning random extra objects in some cases. E.g. if the JIT happens to be compiling your code, it could hold temporary objects alive
