No, as far as I can see it's OK and that's a successful PASS.  The purpose of
the test is to leak some memory and verify that the GC can *detect* the leak.

As indeed it does in the other case as well, which now makes me suspect that
the alpha FAIL is probably a false negative.  The test code is rather old,
declares main as an implict int function, and doesn't have a return statement
in it.  That could easily end up returning some random register contents as an
exit status.  Do you have time to check if adding a "return 0;" at the end of
the main() function resolves the failure?
