Add suppressions for all of them.  Any decent memory checker has to
account for the reality that many programs don't bother freeing memory
before exit.

Or, to put it another way, why add this free and not, say, something
to free all the other memory allocated by gcc which is live at exit?
I think there are a lot of instances of this.
