Message 301889 - Python tracker

The leak comes from the following lines of _PySys_EndInit():
---
    PyObject *warnoptions = get_warnoptions();
    if (warnoptions == NULL)
        return -1;
    SET_SYS_FROM_STRING_BORROW_INT_RESULT("warnoptions", warnoptions);

    PyObject *xoptions = get_xoptions();
    if (xoptions == NULL)
        return -1;
    SET_SYS_FROM_STRING_BORROW_INT_RESULT("_xoptions", xoptions);
---

It's not the first time that I have an issue with these attributes. The last reference weak caused by multiple interpreters was also related to this one if I recall correctly.

See bpo-30598 and my commit 865de27dd79571a4a5c7a7d22a07fb909c4a9f8e.
