             Bug #: 13310
           Summary: (cpychecher) Suspected memory leak in
                    gdb/python/py-param.c: call_doc_function()
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: python
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: dmalcolm@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified

HTML report showing the execution paths that leak memory

See attached HTML report from gcc-python-plugin's cpychecker:

  result->ob_refcnt is 1 too high:

It looks to me like the returned "result" object from
PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs() is leaking a reference in each of these paths
through the function.

Caveat: this static analyzer is relatively immature, so it could be getting it
wrong.
