Any program using libsl, or calling FcIni (directly or indirectly), that

Wouldn't it just free the memory on program exit by the operating system?
In this case I don't see the issue becaus it doesn't memory leak over time.
Let me know if I missed something,
You are correct.
I was trying to find the leak in a program I am developing and found
that this call resolved it. For those newer who use other suckless
programs as reference when writing their own it might be nice to have a
note about this function. Mention of it in the comment above
drw_fontset_create would be my suggestion.
