<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">1) In stringfields.h:ast_string_field_ptr_set_by_fields(), the __p__ and ptr pointers are the same by initialization so the test for *__p__ != *ptr is always false and will not release the old string value when __ast_string_field_alloc_space() allocates space for the new string value. I think this is the primary leak.
2) In utils.c:__ast_string_field_ptr_grow(), the increase of pool->used doesn't seem right. It should be increased to keep alignment similar to utils.c:__ast_string_field_alloc_space().
3) I think a check needs to be added to utils.c:__ast_string_field_ptr_build_va() for the case when the string created by vsnprintf() is empty so the pool string can be set to the constant __ast_string_field_empty pointer. (Like is done in stringfields.h:ast_string_field_ptr_set_by_fields())
4) All of these fixes would apply to v1.8 as well.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">1) I think I've fixed this.
2) To be honest I'm not sure how to fix this.
3) Fixed.
4) If this review is complete before the final 1.8 bug fix release.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">2) I'm not sure if it really needs to be fixed as I didn't find any reported issues about this on architectures that are fussy about alignment.
4) I'd say it is too late since the final RC is expected to be made today.</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">Any time a stringfield is blanked it currently prevents any currently allocated memory from being freed. If a stringfield is repeatedly set to blank then set to a non-blank value, it causes new pools to be continuously allocated and never freed.
I'm unsure if the loop can be optimized, maybe the break can be re-added to the original location on the condition that ptr == __ast_string_field_empty?</pre>
