Yeah, I'm wary of the GC hack as well. It's a nice way to prove that this the internal cache is the problem, but probably not something we want to commit. A "codecs._forget_codec" helper in the C module would be all that was needed to handle it. Other implementations could then also use that to clear their own internal cache (if they have one).
