Comment (by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:352 jpflori]:
 > Bad (?) news, Sage 5.2 fails the same way.
 > I've got some FLINT related patches on top of vanilla 5.2 but have
 double checked I have nothing related to the memleak tickets.

 It means that the debug build of Python can not (yet) be used to debug the
 problems introduced by this patch.

 I suggest that we move fixing these unrelated problems to a new ticket.

 However, the valgrind output suggests that there ''is'' something wrong
 with the new `TripleDict` implementation. Is there a way to tell from the
 valgrind output where (i.e., for instances of what classes) the invalid
 reads occur? IIRC, you suggested on sage-devel that it could be related
 with endomorphism rings, kind of "domain and codomain are both decref'd,
 which is bad if they are the same".

 But is that just a guess, or has it been confirmed?
