Summary: missing DECREF's in embedding example

Initial Comment:
Extending and Embedding Python, chapter 5.3 Pure Embedding 
 
There's a large example. 
 
I think there are some Py_DECREF's missing in the error handling 
cases: 
 
else { 
	PyErr_Print(); 
	fprintf(stderr, "Call failed\n"); 
	return 1; 
} 
 
--> this one misses IMHO 
Py_DECREF(pArgs); 
Py_DECREF(pModule); 
Py_DECREF(pName); 
 
else { 
	PyErr_Print(); 
	fprintf(stderr, "Failed to load \%s\\n", argv[1]); 
	return 1; 
} 
 
--> this one misses IMHO 
Py_DECREF(pName); 
 
I'm no Python expert, so I may be wrong - please check! 
 
If they're not necessary in these cases, you should perhaps add a 
comment explaining the reason to the docs...
