State-Changed-Why:
    
    Please consider using the soon-to-be released 3.1.0, or mainline 3.2 sources. Both have revamped allocation strategies from the code you are using, and neither have the problems you are reporting. I've checked with valgrind and the current sources, and everything looks ok except for one issue with the underlying "C" locale information, which valgrind displays as a 16 and a 64 byte leak. These are to be expected. 
    
    Before the allocation tuning happened, there were 53 such issues.
