mutable.Queue is implemented by inheriting mutable.MutableList.

when an element is enqueued into an empty mutable.Queue, mutable.MutableList modifies the
first and last member variables to the only element in the queue. the dequeue method in mutable.Queue does not modify the value of last, so the queue holds onto the reference of the now dequeued element, which is a space-leak.
