I think this is not the place to be discussing the patch (the tracker is),
but while I think of it, I'll just say:

You need to DECREF the fn variable (both
PyObject_GetAttrString<http://www.python.org/doc/api/object.html>and
PyString_FromString
<http://www.python.org/doc/api/stringObjects.html>return new
references). If this makes no sense, read up on reference
counting (http://docs.python.org/ext/refcounts.html,
http://www.python.org/doc/api/countingRefs.html).

....
+			     PyString_AsString(name),
+                             PyString_AsString(fn));
+               Py_DECREF(fn);
 	}

Also:

   - Do you really want "?" if you can't get the filename for some reason --
   why not just not say anything?
   - Perhaps don't create a new variable "fn", use one of the many defined
   at the top of the eval function.

Otherwise, looks like it will do the job.

But I haven't tested it, just eyeballed it.
