Cannot comment on 8.5.5. Still using 8.4 branch (conservative user-

... scary is relative. So, how scary is your "scary", really?

(BTW, if I were you, I would turn ANY "clever" memory allocator and use
malloc/free everywhere when debugging memory.)

As from our experience... if we leak (which is not unlikely) then
it is far from scary, as otherwise I'd already pull-out all my hair.
However, when looking in the mirror, I can say we are not leaking.
