Description Arjan van de Ven 2002-12-28 17:31:32 UTC 
simple memory leak:
the icon filename gets replaced in the hashtable only conditional, but in case
the condition doesn't hit the memory for the pathname needs to be freed since
it's no longer used afterwards. Patch with fix attached.

another leak fixed

The same file had another leak where a strdup()'d string didn't get freed in
one place; smaller leak (typical 6 bytes per time) but still...

Ah, looks fixed in CVS already. Should be fine in Rawhide (gnome-desktop 2.1.x, 
well the relevant files have moved to libgnomeui apparently)
