[issue8336] PyObject_CallObject - Not "reference-count-neutral"

[Krauzi]

New submission from Krauzi <krauzi_gmbh at yahoo.de>:

In the docs there is written:
"PyObject_CallObject() is “reference-count-neutral” with respect to its arguments."
This is not correct. Its only reference-count neutral if the call was SUCCESSFUL otherwise the argument is INCREFED! 
Can anyone confirm this?

Cheers Krauzi.
