Comment (by ybungalobill@…):

 Hereby, I submit a patch that fixes the above bug. However, it doesn't
 solve the issue completely since it still suffers from the problem that if
 someone serializes an object with implementation level of class-info
 through a pointer, then all other instances are are tracked too (even
 those that are not serialized through a pointer). However it's now trivial
 to fix the behavior to be the intended one, it's just that it involves
 archive format breakage so we must bump the library version.
