Well, the rules for yelling "memory leak" in a crowded theatre remain
the same: whittle your code down to the smallest possible program that
demonstrates the leak, then submit a bug report.  More likely what will
happen is that you'll discover where your code isn't cleaning up
properly.  Sure, Perl usually cleans up after you, but sometimes it
can't.
