[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:

Ok, so. I wrote a different PR: PR 3927 adds a new PYTHONSHOWALLOCCOUNT environment variable and write allocations statistics into stderr (rather than stdout) when PYTHONSHOWALLOCCOUNT is set.

The PR also fixes the test suite for COUNT_ALLOCS.

The PR 3927 is much shorter because PYTHONSHOWALLOCCOUNT now has to be defined to dump allocations statistics.
