I suppose it's maybe something to do with different malloc
implementations or such. I haven't seen any +1s for OpenBSD, which
would be interesting to see since they added some stuff in 3.8 to help
catch problems with this sort of thing

Anyone been able to use valgrind or similar with mod_python? I Googled
and found a couple old messages from '02 and '04 mentioning attempts to
use this, but doesn't sound like much came out of it. I think there's a
valgrind port on FreeBSD, so I may give that a try.
