Hi. I found a memory leak in:
(120195 snapshot) src/lib/krb5/os/hst_realm.c:krb5_get_host_realm
Thanks!
Basically what happens is profile_get_string mallocs the value for &realm:
Yeah, what was going on was that before we had the profile code, the
value of realm wasn't allocated, and so we needed to reallocate it. Now
that the profile code allocates the value for us, the extra reallocation
isn't necessary. Thanks for noticing this!
