Some functions in the readline module appear to leak memory; readline.replace_history_item is one of these:
Test code:
import readline
readline.clear_history()
readline.add_history("first line")
readline.add_history("second line")
while True:
readline.replace_history_item(0, "replaced item")
This is on OS X 10.6.4, with a 64-bit debug build of Python, and the readline module linked against a local build of GNU readline version 6.1.

This patch fixes the leaks in replace_history_item, remove_history_item (similar), and get_current_history_length. I'm not sure which version of the GNU history library introduced free_history_entry (which is used by this patch). I also haven't checked whether it's available in libedit (used on OS X). |

It turns out that free_history_entry is new in GNU Readline 5.0. It doesn't exist in libedit. |
