Today it finally passed the python test suite. The last thing to do is the addition of XDECREF's, so yes, it is leaking a lot of references. I won't make it to PyCon (it's a long way for me to come), but gee I've left all the fun stuff for you to do ! :) Even if AST transforms are not allowed, I see it as the strongest form of code reflection, and long over-due in python.
