As pointed out in IRC, when a string that is not in static tokens table,
but, exists in pstring-table, this patch would leak that *string*.

Phillip: How about an updated patch with discussed changes? (by removing
camel_pstring_*)... which will more or less look like the current
implementation, however, saves some *g_strdups*.
