Notes from irc log;

(15:01:52) tedg: klattimer, Yeah, so ayan has a small GTK program that creates 
and destroys menus and causes a leak in GTK...
(15:03:37) tedg: I was talking to hughsie a while back and he was saying it 
depends on the battery firmware how often it updates.
(15:03:51) tedg: Which probably explains the variation of folks reporting 
things on the bug.
(15:06:12) tedg: I wonder if there's something of the wrong type so that 
hashtable isn't getting free'd.
(15:06:28) tedg: In theory dbus-glib should do that... but I don't have a huge 
amount of faith in it.
(15:06:52) tedg: klattimer, The last entry in the valgrind log.  For 
properties_copy
(15:07:04) tedg: It allocated a hashtable which get's passed to dbus-glib.
(15:08:42) tedg: No, I think that serialze_menu item has a leak of that 
hashtable....
(15:08:47) tedg: Uhg.

So there are gtkmenu leaks, and libdbusmenu-glib leaks - best thing to
do is fix libdbusmenu-glib and upstream the result of ayan's tests to a
gtkmenu bug.
