I had initially wanted to make a comment, but feared the objection that
a comment would eventually fall out of sync with the implementation of
object.__reduce_ex__ over the years (just as copy.py currently has all
sorts of cruft that is no longer applicable). But I think that you are
right that a comment that's at least true today is better than no
comment at all; so I will add one on Monday.
