[issue8420] Objects/setobject.c contains unsafe code

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Attaching a patch for set_lookkey() that does a DECREF only when the refcnt > 1 so that the DECREF won't trigger any state changes.

The merge crasher still needs a patch.
