It looks like we don’t have refleaks anymore!  I still have one question.

Victor reported some time ago that packaging.util._path_created was a cache that was never cleared; I fixed that in 27a70dfc38cc, but recently I’ve found that regrtest itself clears the similar distutils.util._path_created; I wonder which approach is better: one global cleaning in regrtest or piecemeal cleanup in each leaking test case?

I’ve also made a patch to register the caches used by packaging.database with the regrtest unclean environment warning; can someone review it?
