I'm afraid the details are not clear to me either, but I have tried the two 
patches out (after correcting an instance of code-before-declaration which VC++ 
doesn't accept in C files) and I find that (with the LimitExcept change 
reverted as per current svn Trunk) they make no visible difference to my setup: 
I don't see the "free unreferenced scalar" errors in the log file after running 
the tests with or without the patches, but I do still get an "Out of memory!" 
crash mid-way through the test suite either way :-(

Looks like it made it through.  Suggest inlining your patches next time instead 
of using attachments, sometimes the list code may filter on those.

I looked through the patches and grok the syntax, but the finer details aren't 
clear to me yet.  Maybe some of the other devs
(gozer,steve,torsten) can comment on them.  I'll hold rc2 for a few days to 
give them a chance to respond.

Can you post some of that error log which shows the error?

Thanks for the contribution.  Anyone else here see those errors previously, or 
can reproduce them now?
