In 3b8161723c645853021b57330dd2ea0484ec6131 Heikki made DatumGetInetP unpack
toasted values. Unfortunately the btree support functions for the inet type
didn't free memory which they have to do in contrast to about everything else.
I fixed a few more functions than strictly necessary but I guess thats ok.
Jochen, could you try the attached patch?
