That's not what I asked.

This:
int main(int, char**) {
   KdePlatformDependent dep; // lives as long as the process
}

does not actually "leak".

This:
int main(int, char**) {
   for (int i = 0; i < 100; ++i)
      KdePlatformDependent dep; // lives for the iteration only
}

does.


If the change causes an *actual* leak and that's avoidable, I'd suggest to 
avoid it.
If not, than it really doesn't matter.
