Currently (r72643), regrtest.py -R:: says that a test passed even if it
leaked references:

trunk collinwinter$ ./python.exe Lib/test/regrtest.py -R::
test_urllib2_localnet
test_urllib2_localnet
beginning 9 repetitions
123456789
.........
test_urllib2_localnet leaked [3, 3, 3, 3] references, sum=12
1 test OK.
[50020 refs]
trunk collinwinter$

The attached patch turns that into

trunk collinwinter$ ./python.exe Lib/test/regrtest.py -R::
test_urllib2_localnet
test_urllib2_localnet
beginning 9 repetitions
123456789
.........
test_urllib2_localnet leaked [3, 3, 3, 3] references, sum=12
1 test failed:
    test_urllib2_localnet
[50010 refs]
trunk collinwinter$ echo $?
1
trunk collinwinter$

This makes it easier to run regrtest.py -R:: as part of a buildbot
installation.

I'll merge to py3k once this is reviewed. Any thoughts on merging to
release26-maint?

That looks fine to me. I don't think it should be merged to any old
versions' branches, though.

Applied in r72658 (trunk) and r72660 (py3k).
