STINNER Victor added the comment:

Python 3.6 got a builtin debugging tool to detect buffer under- and overflow: PYTHONMALLOC=debug

https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.6.html#pythonmalloc-environment-variable

In most cases, an error in PyObject_Free() is a hint of a buffer overflow. So I close the issue.
