yeah, i'm lame, replying to my own email. anyway, it's a slow day here
at work, so i VNCed home and tested my theory. stop loading SVG icons,
memleak goes away. damn librsvg authors making me think i suck at
memory management ^_~.
so i suppose i'll do some cleanups tonight and commit what i have, with
the SVG-disable in place (*sigh*).
question: how should i handle the updating of autoconf/make-generated
files? iirc, i'm running the right versions of everything that jasper(?)
mentioned a couple weeks ago, except for libtool (i'm still on 1.4 and
i'm somewhat hesitant to upgrade for fear of system breakage). anyway,
rerunning autogen.sh makes all of my Makefile.in's different (10-15
lines or so), and the configure i generate is vastly different. so
should i just commit as-is, or is there a magical method i'm not aware
of...?
