test_load_refcount from numpy.lib.tests.test_io #6571
Description
The test test_load_refcount from numpy.lib.tests.test_io seems to randomly fail even on the master branch.
#!/usr/bin/env python

n=100
print("Test",end='')
for i in range(n):
print("\rTest %d/%d"%(i+1,n),end='')

I've noticed that also. Checking refcounts can be tricky, so my initial thoughts have been that there is a test problem, but I haven't looked closely at it.

Odd, I ran it 500 times and it passed every one...

Ubuntu 15.04, Python 3.4.3, master branch it fails nearly each time. And I see Travis check regularly failing on it.

Ah, I was checking under 2.7. Under 3.4 it seems to fail reliably the first time I run it in an interactive session (and then works reliably after that).

@rherault-insa @charris: since you seem to be able to reproduce this reliably, can you check whether #6576 helps?
