Moving extensions to either quarantine or deathrow....
Moving extensions to either quarantine or deathrow. When a module is moved to quarantine, it means that while we intend to keep it, it is currently broken or sufficiently untested that it can't be in the main IPython codebase. To be moved back into the main IPython codebase a module must: 1. Work fully. 2. Have a test suite. 3. Be a proper IPython extension and tie into the official APIs. 3. Have members of the IPython dev team who are willing to maintain it. When a module is moved to deathrow, it means that the code is either broken and not worth repairing, deprecated, replaced by newer functionality, or code that should be developed and maintained by a third party.

"""Minimal script to reproduce our nasty reference counting bug.
The problem is related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ipython/+bug/269966
The original fix for that appeared to work, but John D. Hunter found a
matplotlib example which, when run twice in a row, would break. The problem
were references held by open figures to internals of Tkinter.
This code reproduces the problem that John saw, without matplotlib.
This script is meant to be called by other parts of the test suite that call it
via %run as if it were executed interactively by the user. As of 2009-04-13,
test_magic.py calls it.
