Ah, Benjamin fixed it already. Thanks! :) The reference leak task has been running for quite some time on my personal machine and I believe it has proven useful. I have no problem continuing running it on the same machine (which is mostly sitting idle anyway), but maybe it should rather be hosted on our CI infrastructure? Any suggestions?

Thank you very much for running that, btw. I'm sure we would have released a lot of horribly leaking stuff without it.

(the script is quite rough with hardcoded stuff, but beating it into better shape could be a nice target for first-time contributors)

Perhaps someone can figure out how to run it on one of the the buildbots?

-- Regards, Benjamin
