Bug description:
>From Bugzilla:

ArrayUInt, (and probably other swig objects) leak memory.

Test Case:
1. Open Activity Monitor or top to view memory
2. Launch Python
python:
>>for x in xrange(10000):
..  z = ArrayUInt(range(100000))

Expected: Memory usage should remain constant as z's __del__ method is invoked
after each loop.
Actual: Memory is continually allocated to python process.
