I've done some tests and found that the leaks have to be somewhere in test_unicode.py below the line "Testing 
builtin unicode()...".

Since the code immediately below that line uses type subclassing I guess that the new type system could have 
something to do with the leakage.

Note that the "leak" could be caused the fact that Unicode shares length 1 Unicode strings in the Latin-1 range.
