That makes no sense, but then you know that already. I could understand the
library not auto-freeing some of the handles, but we know it's freeing some
of them or you wouldn't get the double-free warning.

Perhaps there's really just a leak in the Linux version...

We'd have to try on Solaris or Windows. I'll get to the Windows test, I'm
just deep into documentation work right now.
