- Issue #1686386: Tuple's tp_repr did not take into account the possibility of

having a self-referential tuple, which is possible from C code.  Nor did
  object's tp_str consider that a type's tp_str could do something that could
  lead to an inifinite recursion.  Py_ReprEnter() and Py_EnterRecursiveCall(),
  respectively, fixed the issues.  (Backport of r58288 from trunk to 2.5.)
