It helps; it prevents leaks. The real culprit is the bogus API, but I don't see that changing anytime soon, so there are two options when somebody makes a mistake the API allows; leak or don't leak. And you seem to prefer the leak, even though it provides absolutely no advantage. -- Felipe Contreras
