 Hi,

 I tried my test code:
 {{{
 #include <iostream>

 #include <boost/cstdlib.hpp>

 #include <boost/python/refcount.hpp>
 #include <boost/python/handle.hpp>

 int main(void)
 {
     using boost::python::allow_null;
     using boost::python::handle;

     Py_Initialize();

     PyObject* py_int = PyInt_FromLong(68);

     std::cout << "py_int->ob_refcnt = ["
         << py_int->ob_refcnt << ']' << std::endl;


     {
         handle<PyObject> h1(allow_null(py_int));
         handle<PyObject> h2(py_int);
     }
     std::cout << "py_int->ob_refcnt = ["
         << py_int->ob_refcnt << ']' << std::endl;

     boost::python::decref(py_int);
     Py_Finalize();


     return boost::exit_success;
 }
 }}}

 and this is my result:
 {{{
 py_int->ob_refcnt = [9]
 py_int->ob_refcnt = [7]
 }}}

 the reference counter not keep to1 9.
