testcmdline leaked [0, 17, -17] references testfilecmp leaked [0, 13, 0] references testthreadinglocal leaked [-93, 0, 0] references testurllib2 leaked [-121, 88, 99] references

Thanks to Thomas digging into test_threading_local, I checked in what appeared to be a total leak fix for it last week. On my Windows box, it's steady as a rock now:

""" $ python_d -E -tt ../lib/test/regrtest.py -R:50: test_threading_local test_threading_local beginning 55 repetitions 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345 ....................................................... 1 test OK. [27145 refs] """

Is it still flaky on other platforms?

If not, maybe the reported

test_threading_local leaked [-93, 0, 0] references

is due to stuff from a previous test getting cleaned up (later than expected/hoped)?
