Armin Rigo <arigo at tunes.org>:
I bet the goal is that if Python is embedded, and initialized and shut down repeatedly, it should not leak memory.
I think that's going to be impossible to achieve as long as there is no protocol for shutting down extension modules, which may be holding references to things in C globals.
