this should only be used if there is only one reference to the object.
Do \emph{not} use this if the tuple may already be known to some other
part of the code. \var{last_is_sticky} is a flag --- if true, the
tuple will grow or shrink at the front, otherwise it will grow or
shrink at the end. Think of this as destroying the old tuple and
creating a new one, only more efficiently. Returns \code{0} on
