Hmm, I think this is a special story with Win98 because of the
different handling of malloc() here compared to other OSs. In principle,
there should not be any mem leak in Win98 version of IDL. Did you
encounter this? And report this to RSI? They purchases some software
for exactly avoiding mem leaks in IDL for Win98(95 too)
