No, it's unreleased memory; it's harmless. Valgrind shows these _warnings_ with
the --leak-check=full argument if one wants to track unfreed pointers. It means
that gfortran could be improved to save a few kBs of memory, but not that we
are using uninitialized data, writing to random unallocated places or doing
whatever deserving an _error_. 
What's important is "0 errors from 0 contexts" in the summary at the end. 

Note that sometimes fixing a warning exposes genuine errors, so it's not just
as simple as that.

What _I_ miss is a code to reproduce the error. :-(
