Could it be your memory leak is in:

return PyFloat_FromDouble(3.1415927); // temporary


You are creating a "python float object" from something. What if you  
return Py_None instead of your float?:

Py_INCREF(Py_None);
return PyNone;

I do not know if it will help you but I guess it falls in the "any 
further thought" category  :-)
