Summary: Repeatedly initializing the interpreter dumps core

run "make looptest" in this directory, you should get a few lines of 'hello
world' followed by a core dump.

Comment:
Neil, do you mind if I assign this to you?  When I look at this in gdb, it
usually seems to have crashed somewhere in the GC code.

Could you give it a quick look over?  Is it possible that the GC code
doesn't do the right thing when Py_Finalize() and Py_Initialize() are
called more than once?

If you don't have time or don't think it's GC's fault, please give it back
to me or to None.
