Memory leak or memory accumulation with freetds-0.82 ctlib's ct_cmd_alloc / ct_cmd_drop?

Hi all, 



Is there a known memory leak or memory accumulation issue with ct_cmd_alloc / ct_cmd_drop? 



I'm writing a program to poll a database as regular intervals and it gradually accumulates memory (seen via top). 



Below is source code to attempt and isolate the problem, compiled with the following command: 

   cc -o ctlib_leak ctlib_leak.c /usr/local/lib/libct.a /usr/lib/librt.a 



I am linking with the archive libraries to run against Purify if necessary. 


Quickest way to see memory eaten up (via top) is to direct stdout and stderr to /dev/null (so output doesn't slow down processing). 



Thanks in advance for any input or suggestions.  I can dig deeper, but wanted to know if this is a known issue. 



Regards, Michael
