@Florian:
Just to jump in here late, we actually need the exact command you used
with example 2.

@Andrew:

I get valgrind clean results (for the svn trunk version of PLplot
built on Debian wheezy) for both

valgrind examples/c/x02c -dev pngcairo -o test.png -fam

and

valgrind examples/c/x02c -dev pngcairo -o test.png

In sharp contrast to those good results

valgrind examples/c/x02c -dev pscairo -o test.ps -fam

and

valgrind examples/c/x02c -dev pscairo -o test.ps

both have dirty valgrind results.  Pending more precise information
from Florian, my results may confirm what Florian has found (if in
fact he used -dev pscairo) or it may be an additional valgrind issue
that is unrelated to what he found.
