There was a subtle big in save_newobj(): it used self.save_global(t)
on the type instead of self.save(t). This defeated the purpose of NEWOBJ, because it didn't generate a BINGET opcode when t was already memoized; but moreover, it would generate multiple BINPUT opcodes for the same type! pickletools.dis() doesn't like this. How I found this? I was playing with picklesize.py in the datetime sandbox, and noticed that protocol 2 pickles for multiple objects were in fact larger than protocol 1 pickles! That was suspicious, so I decided to disassemble one of the pickles. This really needs a unit test, but I'm exhausted. I'll be late for work as it is. :-(
