Coverity cannot introspect the cpython code and it thinks, that if the PyTuple_New or similar will always give the same result. In functions where the python function is called more than once with the same arguments, it will assume that if the first call don't return NULL, then also the every other call cannot return NULL. This is a wrong assumption and it's a false-positive.
