[pkg-fetchmail-maint] Bug#688015: [PATCH] Re: Bug#688015: memory leak

[Matthias Andree]

Now that was a useful pointer, thanks a bunch!

We have had this leak ever since the subjectAltName support was added in
2005 (fetchmail 6.2.9)... it strikes whenever we manage to extract these
fields from a certificate while verifying it.

This bug only hurts in daemon mode, because the leak accumulates only then.

Can either of the reporters see and report back if the attached patch
improves the situation for you?
