Fix refcounting problem which causes a segfault for following test code;

--------------------------------------------------------
#include <python2.5/Python.h>

int main(void)
{
    int i;
    for (i = 0; i < 1000; ++i)
    {
        Py_Initialize();
        PyRun_SimpleString("import pwd\n");
        Py_Finalize();
    }
    return 0;
}
--------------------------------------------------------

It seems Python 2.6.x also have same problem, will it be merged 
automatically (seems like svn-merge is used for this purpose) or do you 
want me to open a new bug against that version?
