I've just compiled and run this code snippet with valgrind, and the
results are on my system (Fedora):

ERROR SUMMARY: 0 errors from 0 contexts (suppressed: 12 from 1)
malloc/free: in use at exit: 0 bytes in 0 blocks.
malloc/free: 30 allocs, 30 frees, 1,981 bytes allocated.

Well if you catch the preprocessor output you'll realize that things are
not always as simpler as they look. Your code grows to 32603 lines
before compilation :)
