New submission from Patrick Miller:
There is a reference counting error in PyFloat_AsDouble.
When the function calls the nb_float conversion, if the method does not return
an actual float object, an exception is set, but the object is not collected.

Here's a simple recreator... It returns a 100-meg string instead of a float.
The memory is leaked each time through the loop

Shout out to amaury for a much simpler recreator :-)
Checked to see if the int conversion suffered the same problem... it does not
as it is structured somewhat differently. Note that it DOES do the proper
DECREF (missing in PyFloat_AsDouble).

This is also in the 2.7.x branch. Same patch.
