Sure, thanks for posting. I appreciate those collaborations.

Well, the testbed does intrumentation on memory management and it  
didn't report
any leak. But it is certainly possible that it would be a leak, so  
let's double check.

Maybe you are not closing the profile at the very end?
cmsWriteTag() may allocate some memory, that is freed when the  
cmsHPROFILE where
you write is closed. This is very common. But if you don't close the profile,
the memory is still there, so I wonder if this is the case.

Regards
Marti
