It's meant for testing the code Cython generates and making sure it gets
ref-counting right when doing things like assigning Python objects back and
forth between temp variables or (I assume) jumping into exception handlers
or returning from the middle of a function.

When Cython gets this right, there shouldn't be any need for such a
functionality on the user side (read: no performance impact or the like).
