Re: sbp_targ memory leak

Thanks for digging out the problem.
I did not suppose multiple CTIO's for an ATIO so that your guess
should be right.

I'm sorry that I will be busy until mid of Feb.
I'd like to merge your fixes to -current in a few month.

I appreciate if you would do the following:
- test on -current and make a patch for -current.
- split the patch for each fix
  (a version control system or ports/devel/quilt may be useful)
- non-reversed patch

Thanks,
