This was a misdirected reply on my part - the rest of the discussion can be 
found in the python-dev archives on python.org or gmane.

I think your comments were basically on target, though - the idea is to be able 
to 'recompile' portions of the interactive session, replacing the code objects 
inside the function structure. (or adding entries to class dictionaries, etc, etc)

Cheers,
Nick.
