Comment (by nbruin):
With the new refcounting, I think it could be that
`currRingHdl.data.uring` holds the last reference to a ring. In fact, it
seems that was the source of the segfaults. If that reference is removed
in `call_function`, shouldn't we delete the ring? The naive solution
{{{
...
currRingHdl.data.uring.ref -= 1
if currRingHdl.data.uring.ref == 0:
rDelete(currRingHdl.data.uring)
currRingHdl.data.uring = currRing # ref counting?
currRingHdl.data.uring.ref += 1
...
}}}
seems to have no ill effect (I put a print statement there that did
produce some output, so it does happen), but perhaps I'm overlooking
something. Are there other places where references are liable to be lost?
