Well, since we are only borrowing the reference to the vm object I don't
think it would be necessary to do the ref-dance. In that case we should
also do it for the second function doing similar things.

I also thoguht that we could ref it and then let the destructor for @vm
to destroy it. I'm not sure whether that wouldn't do a cyclic reference
though so I sticked with the simplest solution ... at least for the
tests.
