In libX11-1.6.2, when creating an input context, the name and class strings passed with XNResourceName and XNResourceClass are copied, but the copies are not freed when XDestroyIC() is called on the resulting input context: main() { /* ... */ XIC ic = XCreateIC(x11_im, XNClientWindow, window, XNFocusWindow, window, XNInputStyle, XIMPreeditNothing | XIMStatusNothing, XNResourceName, "foobar", // Leaked. XNResourceClass, "foobar", // Leaked. NULL); XDestroyIC(ic); /* ... */ } $ valgrind --leak-check=full ./test [...] ==8402== 14 bytes in 2 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 13 of 94 ==8402== at 0x4C2B960: malloc (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so) ==8402== by 0x79392D1: strdup (in /lib64/libc-2.20.so) ==8402== by 0x69F22E6: ???
