Christian Heimes added the comment:

The macro W_SIZE at http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/dbdb6f7f9a1a/Python/marshal.c#l130 has introduced a reference leak at
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/dbdb6f7f9a1a/Python/marshal.c#l390 . Because W_SIZE returns in an error case the reference count of PyObject *utf8 isn't decreased. 

CID 1040640 (#1 of 1): Resource leak (RESOURCE_LEAK)
leaked_storage: Variable "utf8" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
