Actually, Glib's memory profiling does not show the exact place where memory
leak occurs, it just shows how much memory allocated. it is not as
comprehensive as Valgrind. May be it is better to check with Valgrind, with
a simple test application whether gtk_widget_queue_draw() causes such a
problem or not as Jim suggested. I will check and inform.
