Description (last modified by scoder) (diff)

Follow-up for ticket #425: ref-counting can also be dropped for list index swap assignments, such as 

cdef list l = [1,2,3,4,5]
l[0], l[2] = l[2], l[0]

However, this requires changes to the way the __Pyx_GetItemInt*() functions work, as they may do their own Py_INCREF() implicitly.
