I think I know the problem: sipWrapper_traverse() does not know anything about 
lambda expressions in slots. Thus, the GC can't fully traverse the lambda 
expressions (whose reference is being kept by the sender object), and can't do 
a full collection of all unreachable items.

I could attempt a fix but I'm not sure how you want to deal with it, since the 
signal/slot part is pretty internal of qtlib.c, while sipWrapper_traverse() is 
in siplib.c. Also, I don't fully understand all the semantics of sipSlot (all 
the combinations of possible NULLs/values for its members) so I'd rather leave 
this to you.
