Stefan, how did you reproduce this? I tried:
1. Uncommenting '#define Py_USING_MEMORY_DEBUGGER' in 
 'Objects/obmalloc.c'.
2. Configuring with './configure --without-pymalloc'.
3. Running 'valgrind --tool=memcheck --log-file=leaks.txt
 --leak-check=full --suppressions=Misc/valgrind-python.supp
 ./python -m test test_mailbox'.
When performing the above I only see leaks in import:
