leak2.py: script based on my leak.py and Antoine's test_haypoleak.py. If you replace "if 0:" with "if 1:", it seems like the test doesn't anymore. It seems like the "leak" is the call to sys.getallocatedblocks() which creates a new integer, and the integer is kept alive between two loop iterations. Maybe I missed something.
