On the test_os patch: I would rename LeakTest to ErrorTest and leave it on for all platforms. BTW, I cannot produce a definitive proof that posix_2str leaks when second conversion fails (regrtest -R does not catch it because the leaked buffer is not a PyObject). Nevertheless, it would be a good idea to add tests that exercise os.rename("foo", 0), os.link("foo", 0) and os.symlink("foo", 0) errors on all platforms.
