I enabled debug symbols in openssl and this is what I am seeing

#3  0x0828bd74 in CUSTOM_FREE (oldMem=0x0) at ssl_mem.c:34
#4  0xb758e160 in CRYPTO_free (str=0x0) at mem.c:397
#5  0xb773520c in SSL_SRP_CTX_free (s=0xb3e4f300) at tls_srp.c:102
#6  0xb77091c0 in ssl3_free (s=0xb3e4f300) at s3_lib.c:2995
#7  0xb7712486 in tls1_free (s=0xb3e4f300) at t1_lib.c:165
#8  0xb77265f2 in SSL_free (s=0xb3e4f300) at ssl_lib.c:586

tls_srp.c :102 is this

OPENSSL_free(s->srp_ctx.login);

Sudarshan
