I am really confused, the leak was due to the PHP debugger I
implemented. (No leak when test the bug without this debugger)

Description:
------------
I had some memory overflow errors. I logged the memory usage step by
step and then I see a difference of 50Mo between two logs.
In the method called between this two logs, I used a static class
attribute as a non-static one (with $this). The modification on the
attribute took effect but triggered an "Interoperability or
Compatibility Notice".
I fixed this error and I had a gain of 50 Mo!!
I have the same bug with a non-static method used as a static method
(with self::). I had a gain of 90Mo because this method was really far
away in the code.
It is a pretty harsh punishment for a compatibility error ;-)
Test script:
---------------
class LeakTester
{
private static $nTest = 0;
public function Test()
{
$this->nTest++;
echo $this->nTest."<br/>\n";
}
}
// ---> Test
$oTest = new LeakTester();
$oTest->Test();
echo memory_get_usage()."<br/>\n"; // (1)
$oTest->Test();
echo memory_get_usage()."<br/>\n"; // (2) > (1)
Expected result:
----------------
(2) should be equal to (1)
Actual result:
--------------
(2) is really greater than (1)
