	Hmmm... unfortunately I'm not fluent in Valgrindese, but these appear to be happening during module and/or table initializations - i.e., they are one-shot losses.  That's not a good thing, but it shouldn't cause instability.  Myself, I wouldn't worry about these unless there are repeats.


	HTH,

Mike
