Now I see a patch. I'll take a close look tomorrow

As far as I understand it the leak is caused by the fact Debian uses
a different compile-time option for MAGIC: Two items, separated by ':';
and the code that splits this has the leak.
If this is true, it's technically upstream although it does not
manifest there. But is should happen in Redhat, too.

Yes, but that's just a workaround. I want to identify the underlying
issue, and fix it.
