Content 
To be exhaustive, another patch should be developed to replace all calls for malloc/realloc/free by PyMem_Malloc/PyMem_Realloc/PyMem_Free. PyObject_Malloc() is still using mmap() or malloc() internally for example.

Other examples of functions calling malloc/realloc/free directly: _PySequence_BytesToCharpArray(), block_new() (of pyarena.c), find_key() (of thread.c), PyInterpreterState_New(), win32_wchdir(), posix_getcwd(), Py_Main(), etc.
