My tests showed that the probable cause of the leak is an overriden 
paintCell() method in a QTable derived widget (in my own code). I tried
to trim down the method, just to be sure that I'm doing everything 
right an not causing a leak by myself.

It seems similar to a problem discussed here before:

I'll try to build SIP and PyQt by using latest snapshot and repeat the
tests again, then I may be able to produce a concrete example code.

Thanks for your help,
