I did read the `...' part.

But what matters to me is that the 5.28 FAQ says gtk+ does not leak memory,
while I see 9 memory leaks related fixed bugs.

I didn't claim that gtk+-2.8.20 had memory leaks, my point was that
if I see 9 memory leaks related bugs fixed, can I at all trust the claim
about no memory leaks ?

So, that's why I asked the questions I asked and suggested the clarification
of "It doesn't" claim by splitting into two separate statements - one for
gtk+-2.8.20 and the other for 2.10.*.
