Python doesn't guarantee that objects will be deleted at a specific
time.  There are different reasons why an object might not be deleted.

In command line mode Python keeps a reference to the most recent
result.  I don't know if it happens in general for any
Py_single_input, but you could try to execute a few dummy commands
with Py_single_input to see if it helps.  But if you're relying on
that behavior you really need to consider rethinking your problem.

The only foolproof way to ensure that an object has been finalized is
to do it manually (i.e., provide a finalize method to releases
resources).
