[issue12167] test_packaging reference leak

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

It means that objects were garbage collected.  The refleak test runs the test multiple times, and ignores the first N runs to allow the object count to "settle".  But sometimes it either doesn't settle, or later runs end up with objects getting garbage collected that were created in earlier runs.
