In the PEP 667 implementation, when I copied the code from _PyFrame_LocalsToFast, I did not realize the value is a new reference so it was decrefed in the original code. This resulted in an extra DECREF in __setitem__. Unfortunately I did not catch it because the test cases used were all immortals.

Two test cases were added:

  • local object variable - this will trigger an assertion failure in debug mode
  • f_locals updating itself multiple times - this will crash the interpreter without the fix

The problem was not a leak though -- it was a free-after-use (the opposite of a leak, really :-).

Right. I was imaging a pool of reference and a hole that's leaking the reference without people knowing it so the pool is drained, but yeah leak is not a good word choice here. I just deleted it, the test itself makes sense without any comments.
