[issue31692] [2.7] Test `test_huntrleaks()` of test_regrtest fails in debug build with COUNT_ALLOCS

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at gmail.com> added the comment:

test_regrtest is not the single test failing when COUNT_ALLOCS is defined. Not least than 12 tests are failing.

In Python 3, many tests were fixed by skipping them if COUNT_ALLOCS is defined: commit a793037d803abf098d172f686e2b95d27863c54d of bpo-19527.

Since Python 3.6, even if COUNT_ALLOCS is defined, statistics are no more dumped by default, but only if -X showalloccount is defined: commit 7e160ce356036bccda2608d9ee10bfe276dfa97a of bpo-23034. Moreover, statitics are now written into stderr rather than stdout.
