Question about Memory leaks in 1.7

[larry.erdahl at usbank.com]

I was wonder if the memory leaks that were addressed in 1.8 were in all 
releases of 1.7,  or if there were specific releases of 1.7 that 1.8 
addressed. The reason being is that I have a mixed Linux environment and 
I'm working with Novell on what looks like a memory leak. Novell hasn't 
yet moved to 2.0 and isn't yet ready to adopt 1.8. They're asking me to 
test their other supported release of 1.7.7, which I really don't want to 
do if there are known leaks in these releases. 

Any clarification or help would be appreciated 

Thanks...
