Yes, that works too, thanks! Passes test suite and fixes the leak,
though I we need to change the _destroy() to be a _cleanup() for safety,
and add another, as in attached.
I think my long standing hatred for this particular function is because
every single C API ever created in history with a foo_create()
foo_destroy() pair has memory allocated by the creator and deallocated
by the destructor. But this one is special!
We should remove apr_brigade_destroy() in APR 2, IMO, or switch to
bucket allocated brigades then.
