[New-bugs-announce] [issue38187] test.test_tools.test_c_analyzer fails in refleak mode

[Pablo Galindo Salgado]

New submission from Pablo Galindo Salgado <pablogsal at gmail.com>:

Running the test suite to check refleaks over test.test_tools.test_c_analyzer will always fail, make it impossible for the refleak buildbots to run correctly. 

Steps to reproduce:

./python -m test test_tools -v -R 3:3
