[issue13013] _ctypes.c: refleak

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

My impression is that plugging refleaks (unlike minor speedups) is a bugfix rather than feature addition, so this and the other issues should be marked for 2.7 and 3.2 also. (I am only changing this one.)

Deprecating a public (but obscure) CAPI function is a separate issue that would only affect 3.3 at the earliest (with a PendingDeprecation or Deprecation warning) and would be in addition to plugging the potential leak in the existing code.
