AH I see ok. I should have read more carefully (a little late here). When you commented out the INCREF on the datat, did you also comment out PyArray_Set_BASE? If not, that may have been causing the problem. If you set the base without INCREF'ing the data, then numpy will DECREF that data when python goes to gc the array. Now you've lost a reference, and if it went to zero, python then tries to gc an object that's still in scope.
