Is there prefered/suggested method on debugging memory leaks?

For example:

  $i = 100;
  while($i-- ) {
      list($foo['a']) = array('bar');
  }

Results with:

Zend/zend_execute.c(3383) :  Freeing 0x0840E1CC (4 bytes),
script=t.php
Zend/zend_variables.c(137) : Actual location (location was relayed)
Last leak repeated 99 times
Zend/zend_execute.c(3380) :  Freeing 0x0840E188 (16 bytes),
script=t.php
Last leak repeated 99 times
=== Total 200 memory leaks detected ===
