   Perhaps I will change the definition of value_bytes() to be more intuitive
   in 1.8.0p3, by adding 8 to all values it returns.  Of course, I will also
   make the corresponding change in object_bytes() to make sure no byte of
   memory is double-charged.

   Would this cause compatibility problems for anyone?
