thank you very much for tracking down that memory leak.

I'm not quite sure how I feel about the "garbage collector" yet. I'd fix
the memory leak by simply calling "sfree" on all variables for now and
keep the "garbage collector" as a possible new feature for the next
version. Does that sound okay to you?
