You shouldn't use DEBUG_LEAK except for debugging purposes :) As the doc mentions: “To debug a leaking program call gc.set_debug(gc.DEBUG_LEAK). Notice that this includes gc.DEBUG_SAVEALL, causing garbage-collected objects to be saved in gc.garbage for inspection.” It's true that the message at shutdown should be eliminated in this case, though. Anyway, I've committed a fix in r84798.
