Sorry Vadim, with all of the great fixes you have been doing recently I
lost track of where this one fit in and was unclear whether it might
have been addressed in these recent changes.
It looks like Igor/Robert can have a great on-going contribution for new
code validation. It might take a little while for us to get to the point
where a daily or weekly run of Purify helps to catch new problems, and I
don't know what Igor's schedule will allow for fixing existing leaks,
but IMHO it's an exciting development for Postgres...
