Hi,

when hunting a bug in yast2-python-bindings I tried to use valgrind
on python. How silly of me! Errors from inside python all over the
place:

mvidner@valkyrie:~$ valgrind python -c "print 'hello'" 2>&1 | wc -l
558

I am attaching a suppression file to fix that.
Can't python use more civilized code? Apparently not, as explained
in http://svn.python.org/projects/python/trunk/Misc/README.valgrind
Can valgrind include this suppression by default?

mvidner@valkyrie:~$ valgrind --suppressions=PyObject_Free-sucks.supp python -c "print \
'hello'" 2>&1 | wc -l 23
