--- Comment #4 from Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com> ---
Hi zerokeeper,
Thanks for reporting this problem. Unfortunately it is not worth
fixing. The leaked memory only happens when readelf is displaying
data on a corrupt binary - regular binaries will not cause readelf
to leak memory. Since the memory is returned to the system when
readelf exits, and readelf always does exit, there is no need to
add in extra code just to handle this corner case.
Cheers
Nick
