Subject: domxml memleak patches into PHP_4_3?
From: chregu@bitflux.ch (Christian Stocker)

Hi

(Mainly) Rob Richards and (just a tiny little bit) me were hunting down
some domxml memleaks (and Rob implemented DomDocument->free() method.
Hooray ;) ). As we are rather late in the release process of PHP 4.3.2,
I'm not sure, if it's wise to commit them now to the PHP_4_3 branch or
if I should wait until after this release.

Furthermore, the DomDocument->free() method was a much asked feature for
domxml (and it really helps saving memory, if you want to process a lot
of XML-Documents in one run). Would it be totally against the release
rule if I add that function after 4.3.2 is released to the PHP_4_3
branch?

Anyway, the diff file (against ext/domxml HEAD, not PHP_4_3 for the time
being) can be found at http://trash.chregu.tv/domxml.memleak.diff, if
anyone wants to use/test it right now
