The FreeRDP message is probably due to some resource leakage, perhaps in
FreeRDP, perhaps in some specific aspect of FreeRDP that 1.5.4 started
referencing, that causes the resource to leak to the point where it can no
longer create connections, particularly TLS/SSL connections.

When I say "underlying system" - I mean that I'm not running Docker
containers, I'm installing natively on CentOS7, and when I upgraded from
1.5.3 to 1.5.4, I did not update any of the other dependencies (FreeRDP,
SSH, kernel, openSSL, etc.). This indicates that the issue isn't guacd
itself, but some issue between guacd + FreeRDP and possibly some underlying
library (OpenSSL) that is causing the leakage.
