Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22
Severity: normal


How to reproduce:
Create a file main.cpp / main.c with the following contents:

#include <netdb.h>
int main()
{
        gethostbyname("www.google.com");
        return 0;
}

Then execute the following:

g++-4.0 -fmudflap (the filename you created above) -lmudflap

That will of course create an executable named a.out in the current directory.

Before running, execute the following:

export MUDFLAP_OPTIONS='-internal-checking -print-leaks
-check-initialization'

Finally, execute a.out.

Note the barrage of memory leak information reports printed to the console,
finishing with the line:

number of leaked objects: 49

Newer versions of mudflap call __libc_freeres() at the end of the
program, so the problem doesn't exist anymore.
