[issue10150] Local references not released after exception

[Alex]

Alex <alex.gaynor at gmail.com> added the comment:

That's because in Python 2.5 at that point in the code sys.exc_info() still points at the traceback (and by extension, the frame) thus x is not deallocated yet.  I don't think this is a bug.
