Robert Withrow sent mail saying that he had Purify output and wondering
if anyone would find it useful. I waited for a day or two hoping someone
else would pick up the topic and since no one did I told Robert to send
me the output and I would try to sort through it and break it into
smaller pieces.

The output was pointing at code with which I was not familiar, but as a
start I sent the output for the initdb run to Vadim. I can send any
pieces to anyone who might want to pick up some work :)

The initdb output was < 100KB and seemed to point at just a few places
with leaks if I read it correctly. The output for the regression tests
was ~ 1MB. Lots of useful info I suppose but I didn't have much of a
clue on how to start :(
