First, these "leaks" only potentially show up when you already have
much bigger problems (i.e. on Linux the machine would already freeze
due to overallocation).

Second, these "leaks" don't even show up as "definitely lost" in
Valgrind (yes, I checked).

On the bright side, Python must be in a very healthy state if we
can afford to spend time on issues such as this one.
