Comment (by dustin):

 Have you determined that this fix eliminates the circular references?
 Python's GC really only gets into trouble when one of the objects in a
 cycle has a `__del__` method -- which ``pb.Referencable`` objects do.
 None of the classes you implicated above are referencable, but perhaps
 that wasn't a complete list of the cycle?
