According to the docs here:

  http://docs.python.org/c-api/gcsupport.html

Any object that uses PyObject_GC_Track in its constructor must call PyObject_GC_UnTrack in its deallocator.  The CThunkObject in _ctypes does the former but not the later.  Attached patch adds a call to PyObject_GC_UnTrack.

This doesn't fix any particular bug I was seeing, I just happened to be going through the _ctypes sources (you know, for fun...) and noticed this discrepancy.
