using

loc = PyDict_New(); Py_XDECREF(loc);

or

PyObject *src = Py_CompileString( code.toStdString().c_str(), "<console>", Py_single_input ); Py_XDECREF(src);

results in a "object at blahblah has negative ref count -1" error on windows visual studio in debug mode. And yes, python is compiled and linked in debug mode also. The release version seems to work.

This happens in version 2.6.7 and 2.7.2.

This looks very unlikely. Python itself is written with tons of similar constructs, and works very well in debug mode. If you can isolate a reproducible case, please file a ticket on bugs.python.org, with all details: code, versions of the compiler, etc. -- Amaury Forgeot d'Arc
