- Issue #3739: The unicode-internal encoder now reports the number of characters
consumed like any other encoder (instead of the number of bytes).
+- Issue #2422: When compiled with the ``--with-valgrind`` option, the
+ pymalloc allocator will be automatically disabled when running under
+ Valgrind. This gives improved memory leak detection when running
+ under Valgrind, while taking advantage of pymalloc at other times.
