/* Function objects and code objects should not be confused with each other:
 *
 * Function objects are created by the execution of the 'def' statement.
 * They reference a code object in their func_code attribute, which is a
 * purely syntactic object, i.e. nothing more than a compiled version of some
 * source code lines.  There is one code object per source code "fragment",
 * but each code object can be referenced by zero or many function objects
 * depending only on how many times the 'def' statement in the source was
 * executed so far.
