Serhiy:
> Do you going to backport also -X showrefcount?

I see -X as a Python3 only thing. If I have to choose, I would prefer to add a new environment variable, since it's more in the "Python2 style".

Iryna:
> That is how it is bypassed in Fedora Py2 builds currently. I am attaching the patch we use.

Oh, nice to see that we get the same idea: opt-in environment variable.

I'm unhappy with the variable name: PYTHONDUMPCOUNTS seems too generic IMHO :-(

I prefer "PYTHONSHOWALLOCCOUNT" since it's closer to Python 3 "-X showalloccount" option, and "alloc" mentions that they are counters on allocations. Not just "random" counters.
