Off the top of my head (I'm really short of time; sorry):

1) leaks of O(1) are of no consequence.  There is only a small fixed
   number of these events (I think) and so they are not a leak problem.

2) I think that there was a prefix in the name of an allocation that
   meant that the leak detective should ignore it.
