I can confirm that current HEAD does not exhibit this leak any longer:
==25823== LEAK SUMMARY:
==25823== definitely lost: 637 bytes in 14 blocks
==25823== indirectly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==25823== possibly lost: 13,071 bytes in 107 blocks
==25823== still reachable: 78,991 bytes in 3,277 blocks
==25823== suppressed: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
I've updated my production systems to 9e7f9258b and will observe its
behaviour over the next few days (but even 60b5967 looked promising).
Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated. Also sorry for being so
obtrusive about this issue :^)
