Would there be a way to enable that automatically for an alpha release? I
know, this requires the external refnanny module, but wouldn't it be
possible to enable it by default, and then add a fallback dead-nanny into
the generated code that would just ignore calls and would be used if the
refnanny itself isn't found? That would eat some performance but would
allow users to enable the refnanny by simply having it lying around in
their PYTHONPATH, instead of requiring a separate build option.

Although I admit that there should be enough of an incentive to enable a
little option in your setup.py. It's never been so easy to make sure that
some out-of-your-control generated code is memory leak free...
