I've ported the program to Linux (see attached tar file). I cannot observe any 
memory leak here - even if I let the program run for a long time (linking with 
Python 2.6). Memory usage in top goes up and down, but never over some upper 
limit.

The only changes to the source that I made are these:
- remove the pause calls
- run the thread creation in an infinite loop
- join the threads

I notice that the Win32 version also doesn't join the threads. Notice that this 
is a memory leak in itself.
