Attributes can be used after deallocation (see e.g. osandov/drgn#280). That's because an explicit or implicit (like in the above case) reference may still exist after the attribute is cleared.

Actually, this specific issue can be solved without reference counting, and that's going to be faster. I'll open another issue for that.
