[issue18085] Verifying refcounts.dat

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon added the comment:

Wow, I didn't even know that file existed. It could actually help with some static analysis of the C code to verify that the refcounts are as expected w/o actually having to do inter-procedural analysis to figure out all of the refcount values. I wonder if Dave's gcc work could help either verify the file or benefit from it?
