puremodule.c could probably be deprecated. Does anybody use Purify anymore -- and if so, have you ever used puremodule? Does it still compile? Are the APIs it uses still up-to-date? Although I did use Purify on python years ago, I never use it now. Though, I never used the puremodule. IMO, Purify is not useful compared to valgrind. +1 on deprecating puremodule.c.

I think it's useful to point out that Purify runs on a lot more platforms than valgrind does, so we should probably keep puremodule around, and update it if necessary.
