hm...what is the usecase for binding a Results instance as instance attribute? I can not think of a case where this would make sense.

When you bind a Shared.DC.ZRDB.Results.Results class to an instance of a 2.8 extensionclass (e.g. self.results = <result instance>), it creates a cycle that eventually manifests itself as SQLAlias reference leaks.  This appears to be a resurrection of an ancient bug (ala http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2000-December/008280.html).
