Ahh! I have just put the donkey outfit on and am now sitting in a corner pretending I dont exist. Basically in my history with net-snmp project I assumed better. Now much wiser, but still as stupid as a donkeys ass and shining with pride I realized that I modified code in the table_array.c which of course would not call the delete existing row. Now I have come to my senses and realize that I should chew on a carrot and lean towards sanity on this issue. There is no leak.
