Nope!  It should definitely NOT be leaking memory.

I finally found the leak and fixed it.  It was in the unique wheel IDs
allocated in POE::Wheel.  The function to delete defunct IDs was not
doing so properly.  A fix has been committed to CVS.

This was a long-standing slow leak.  Thanks for finding it.
