Yeah, I've already tried that. undef $selector does nothing and
Gtk2::ImageView::Tool::Selector does not have a destroy method.

Declaring it globally works, but i don't see the difference to other
variables here. Why are the newly created pixbufs not leaking when they
are created each time in the sub?

In fact there is now possibility to reuse Gtk2::ImageView in a module
and create several instances of it without leaking, am i right?
