This is quite nice, and I think that it's a good direction to push this
~series~ patch in before queuing. That said, I wasn't sure about...

...this hunk. That only kicks in if you have other recent object(s),
since the hooks are consulted as a side-effect of calling your new
`obj_is_recent()` function.

I think in most cases that's fine, but if you had no otherwise-recent
objects around, then this code wouldn't kick in in the first place.

I wonder if it might make more sense to call the hooks directly in
add_unseen_recent_objects_to_traversal().

I was going to say, I'm not sure this would work since we don't use any
of this code from enumerate_cruft_objects() when the cruft_expiration is
set to "never", but that's fine since we're keeping all of those objects
anyway.

OK, my bad, I think that was the point you were trying to make in your
previous email, but I didn't quite grok it at the time. Yes, I agree,
this code only needs to kick in when pruning.

Thanks,
Taylor
