#32 Crash on import, probably due to api change in python 2.5
When importing xmlrpc into python 2.5 I get the following:
python 2.5.1, py-xmlrpc 0.8.8.3, glibc v2.5
>>> import xmlrpc
# /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xmlrpc.pyc matches /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xmlrpc.py
import xmlrpc # precompiled from /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xmlrpc.pyc
dlopen("/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_xmlrpc.so", 2);
import _xmlrpc # dynamically loaded from /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_xmlrpc.so

This doesn't occur with python 2.4.4 (if the library is built for 2.4.4).

I changed the source file (6 files) to use PyObject_DEL() instead of PyMem_DEL().
After this change, py-xmlrpc works good with Python 2.5.1(win32).
