The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

# WARNING! This script can be dangerous.  It executes every line in every
# file in the build directory and its subdirectories, so it could do some
# harm if the line contains `rm *` or something similar.
#
# Run this as ./perl -Ilib Porting/leakfinder.pl after building perl.
#
# This is a quick non-portable hack that evaluates pieces of code in an
# eval twice and sees whether the number of SVs goes up.  Any lines that
# leak are printed to STDOUT.
#
# push and unshift will give false positives.  Some lines (listed at the
# bottom) are explicitly skipped.  Some patterns (at the beginning of the
# inner for loop) are also skipped.
