Here is a patch that fixes some of these handle leaks in Python 3.2. However, as a general guideline, you shouldn't unload the Python DLL if you fish to use it later again. Just keep it in memory (the DLL isn't very big, is it?). Yes, C++ would allow to solve this, but the interpreter is currently written in C and there's no plan, even in the middle term, to change this.
