Add use_weakref option to functools.lru_cache The use_weakref option makes lru_cache create weak references to the function arguments when creating the cache key, which prevents them from staying in the memory forever even after all other references to them are gone. This is a proof of concept for http://bugs.python.org/issue19859

""" Utility for parsing HTML entity definitions available from:

      http://www.w3.org/ as e.g.
      http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/HTMLlat1.ent

    Input is read from stdin, output is written to stdout in form of a
    Python snippet defining a dictionary "entitydefs" mapping literal
    entity name to character or numeric entity.
