>
> We use singleton objects for the null Avro value, and for each of the
> primitive Avro schema types. They're initialized with a reference count of
> 1, and their reference counts are decremented with the avro_whatever_decref
> methods, but we don't increment them in the "constructor" methods. That
> causes the reference counts to get wonky. We don't ever free the static
> singleton instances, so we don't get any memory corruption, but it's still
> not very clean.
