No crashes at all, I just wanted to point our that twenty reload actions, once for each SIGHUP, did not uncover an error caused by the memory reclaim code I have implemented in the suggested patch. This increases the propability that my ocular inspection of the patch is correct! Clearly the present memory leakage is so slow that it might take thousands of reloads before s given system senses any disturbance. Still, we would all agree that any known leaks ought to be closed at the source.
