Maybe this is where someone like Keith can contribute? Go through a
lot of old issues and inevitably there'll be some that you can
reproduce with the version of Python that was current then, but can't
repro with today's Python, and they can be closed as fixed. Doesn't
take any knowledge of C, and maybe not even of Python (if there's a
good enough test case there).
