--- Comment #1 from Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroqui...@skynet.be> ---
This behaviour is not necessarily a bug, as some pointers might e.g. be left on
the stack
and/or in registers, and so can still be considered as reachable.

See e.g. memcheck/tests/leak-cases.c for a technique used to avoid (or limit)
such
pointers being kept in regression tests.

Note that you can investigate why a block is still reachable using gdb+vgdb :
see
http://www.valgrind.org/docs/manual/mc-manual.html#mc-manual.monitor-commands
e.g. leak_check, block_list  and who_points_at monitor commands.
