I know you weren't trying to write any production code or
anything.  I was just pointing out, that if the memory leak
is moved to krb5_init_context(), then the problem is solved
for realistic cases.  And I was just trying to say it wouldn't
fix the problem in your test program and that your leak
test would still leak.
