Martin Smith added the comment:
I'm persuaded that this is not a sustained memory leak.
Thanks to Martin Panter and Benjamin Peterson for the tests and the careful
explanations.
Apologies for distracting busy people.

New submission from Martin Smith:
Attached file demonstrates a memory leak arising in ctypes (I think). Leak
occurs in both 2.7 and 3.5, though at different rates.
Humble apologies if I've screwed up somewhere. Very nervous about submitting
this.
