[New-bugs-announce] [issue15635] memory leak with generators

[Florent Xicluna]

New submission from Florent Xicluna:

Hello,

I noticed a large memory consumption in my application.
I tracked it down to be a problem with garbage collection of generator locals.

The issue was noticed in 2.6 first. Then I reproduced it in 2.7.
The test case finds some leak in 3.3 too, it seems.
