[issue1540] Refleak tests: test_doctest and test_gc are failing

Antoine Pitrou added the comment: The GC behaves gracefully in 3.4: the gc_bug script shows no uncollectable object. I don't think this is worth fixing in 3.3. -- nosy: +pitrou resolution: - out of date status: open - pending versions: -Python 3.4

Jeremy Hylton jhyl...@gmail.com added the comment: I'm trying to figure out the attached script. If I run Python 3.0, the script doesn't run because of the undefined gc.DEBUG_OBJECTS. If I just remove that, the script runs without error. Does that mean the problem is fixed? Or is running

New submission from Christian Heimes: I've seen the problem on Windows only. test_doctest fails and the problem also causes test_gc to fail when it is run after test_doctest. W/o a prior run of test_doctest test_gc doesn't fail. File c:\dev\python\py3k\lib\test\test_doctest.py, line 1570, in
