valgrind usually has something to say, but (noting that I'm only
interested in what it says when I configure --with-valgrind(*)),
I get a report of ~5000 lines using these options

OPTS="-v \
	--num-callers=10 \
	--error-limit=no \
	--show-reachable=yes \
	--leak-resolution=high \
	--track-origins=yes \
	--leak-check=yes \
	--show-reachable=yes"

...and almost all of that is stuff that I can't fix without adding
interfaces in X11, Xt and Xaw.

(*) asan2 also has things to say, but most of that is not useful
    without a complete set of debug-libraries (again, X11/Xt/Xaw).
