MEMORY LEAK IN RADEAPCLIENT

[roshith]

Hi,

Iam setting up a freeradius server in my ubuntu12.04 .

freeradius: *FreeRADIUS Version 2.1.10*, for host i686-pc-linux-gnu, 
built on Feb 24 2014 at 15:16:51

I installed freeradius using : apt-get install freeradius.

I tested my server using radtest (both radclient and radeapclient) thats 
provided along with it.
This works fine...

I tested radclient and radeapclient using valgrind to check the memory 
usages.

Radclient didnt show any memory leak, but *Radeapclient shows memory 
leakage!!*..*

*Is it something to worry about?
Is this issue been fixed?

Please help me asap.
Any help is much appreciated.



valgrind out for radeapclient:
