I am curious, why previously both iterator and IterParseIterator names were deleted, but now only IterParseIterator? And what is the purpose of this statement in the first place? I was thinking that iterator.__closure__ stores references to these objects; therefore, unnecessary references should be deleted. However, as per my checks, closure stores only referenced variables inside; pullparser, close_source and wr in this case.

I also noticed that it.root = None was deleted. This fact is not documented, but this may still cause unintended errors on the user side if they use root.

I think you are right about the it.root = None. I did not intend a behavioral change here, so it seems like a good idea to add it back.

I don't think the del statements matter one way or the other. They look like they break a cycle, but not really, but they also are harmless.
return it

Avoid reference cycle in ElementTree.iterparse. The iterator returned by
``ElementTree.iterparse`` may hold on to a file descriptor. The reference
cycle prevented prompt clean-up of the file descriptor if the returned
iterator was not exhausted.
