I could not find a relevant use for them. Can anyone enlighten me?
I'm not sure why they are needed. They seem to be used to keep the unserialized version of a dict around until the dict is destroyed. I thought this could be because we were using pointers to the unserialized data inside dict, but that's not the case currently. However, checking very old versions (pre 3.2), I see that dict values were not allocated, but a pointer to the unserialized data was used.
I think this is not needed anymore. Probably we could remove these fields if that's the only reason.
