It has been a while, but I think this will show a leak:
while 1:
d = {'a': 1}
Via regular Python, it works without a leak, but with mod_python, it leaks
(buggy version).
Reference counting is supposed to take care of this (and I don't see any
cycles).

Binary package hint: libapache2-mod-python
Hello,
__repr__ leaks only under mod_python. The problem seems to be related to a
mod_python bug:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-python-dev/200610.mbox/[EMAIL

Can you please backport this bug fix to Edgy/Feisty. The mod_python devs
fixed it in 3.3.x and that will only get into Gutsy.
It is a one liner fix:
