[Kstars-devel] We've got a leak

Ok, dumb question: how do I use calltree/kcachegrind to find memory leaks?  I 
have run kstars through calltree (using a greatly reduced data set to reduce 
execution time), but the nothing in the output made it obvious that a leak 
had been found.  KCachegrind looks really cool, but it seems to be geared 
toward optimization rather than debugging; does it present any information on 
bad memory usage?

I can post the calltree output file, if anyone is interested.

thanks,
Jason
