When using the provided Demangle function routine to demangle C++ names, the runtime appears to be leaking one byte per call.

N/A
Problem summary
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A memory leak in the demangler interface may occur with certain input strings. This is caused by heap allocations of one byte; which, in certain cases, are not reclaimed. USERS AFFECTED: Users of the demangler library in the C++ runtime or libdemangle.
Problem conclusion
Did not use heap allocation for the case where the memory would not be explicitly freed.
