Hi,

I'm not sure this tech@ is appropriate place to post this, but given
that DBI is heavily used by people running any kind of Perl/database
combo on OpenBSD, you might want to know about it.

It turns out, that in Perl 5.10, DBI leaks memory on pretty much any
database operation. The problem is described here:
http://rt.perl.org/rt3//Public/Bug/Display.html?id=56908

It is fixed in Perl 5.10.1:
http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/b17f5ab768c4daa8faac6c85c0c20d3895f406e1

Backported patch attached. Test successfully on i386/4.5 with DBI-1.604.

Should this be considered for inclusion in 4.5-STABLE and 4.6-STABLE?

Regards,
Srebrenko
