I don't know what happened to the numbering.  Those article numbers all
appear in the May 2000 archive and don't appear related to cyclic GC.  Try
browsing from this point:

    http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2000-March/thread.html

I think this may be one of the articles:

    http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2000-March/002385.html

That article is the starting point for an extensive thread.  In general,
March 2000 seems to have been a fertile month for cyclic GC.
