Sending attachments to a list is not a good idea. I don't think this list
allows it either.

You can post a pointer to a script that people can download and look at. Since
you are talking about scripts that are used as part of your companies
business, you may not want to make those scripts public.

As I worked on those scripts, I already have copies of them. If you remind me
which of the three scripts (newimage, newimage5, or logov1) is the one used
most, I can do some testing at my end. I will try to isolate the leak to a
small set of operations or a specific API call.

I would be doing this on a volunteer basis as my free time permits (mainly
weekends and possibly some evenings) in order to help see that a problem in
gimp-perl, or GIMP, gets found and fixed.
