Yes, it is expected.  The special-casing was introduced because PyPy
doesn't guarantee the identity of "PyObject *" when you don't own a
refcount.  It's what I'm trying to fix in the branch cpyext-gc-support
but it's not done yet.  It's why I said I don't know how to tweak lxml
to make it work on current versions of PyPy.


A bientôt,

Armin.
