It seems that the ::http::geturl command leaks memory
in the Win32 version of TCL 8.3.4. This was not the
case in TCL 8.3.3. The attached file shows this
behavior; source it in tclsh83 and observe the memory
allocation grow in Task Manager.

    Please note that ::http::geturl requires that the returned
    token is eventually freed with ::http::cleanup (when you no
    longer need that information about the connection). This
    is in the docs.
