Summary:                    Memory leak in asterisk
Description: 
Our system uses the asterisk manager to initiate calls via the originate
command.
We noted that there was a bug fix from 1.4.36 to 1.4.37 about fixing this
issue.  However, we found that this did not stop the memory leak, so it may
be in another section of the code.

We use Cent OS 5.0 and dahdi-complete-2.4.0, libpri 1.4.11.4

1. In the change log of 1.4.37,

        * main/manager.c: Make sure we always free variables properly in
          manager originate. (closes issue
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=17891) reported, solved and
          tested by oej Review: https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/869/

2. Ok I will do that. 

3. We are doing an originate to join the outside party into a meetme room.
The dial plan really only consists of the meetme command.

The reason we posted the issue is that we see the asterisk program using
up more and more memory as time goes on, and unsure whether that is normal
or memory is not freed.  If it is a non-issue, let me know.
