I'm trying to fix refleaks in 3.6.  So far:

test_ast, test_code and test_trace were fixed by 
https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/2c6825c9ecfd

test_pydoc leaks in test_typing_pydoc. I tried git bisect and it looks 
like that the first commit that introduced the refleak was the one that 
added test_typing_pydoc!

62127e60e7b0 doesn't modify any CPython internals, so it looks like that 
test_typing_pydoc exposed some bug that has existed before it. Any help 
tracking that down is welcome :)
