Andrew Svetlov added the comment:

Bug can be reproduced if _PyBytes_Resize fails with out-of-memory error than 
NULL object decrefed.
Buggy modules are _io, binascii and zlib.

3.4 hasn't the problem.
Patch for 3.3 is attached.
Fix goes to mimic 3.4 -- (replace Py_DECREF with Py_CLEAR), while for 
_PyBytes_Resize that does not make sense, object has been set to NULL inside 
_PyBytes_Resize on fail.

Also 2.7 has the same issue for _PyString_Resize calls.
