Possible memory leak in symbolic vectors

[Jiri Spitz]

Hi Albert,

there might be a memory leak in symbolic vectors:

Repeating several times
#{(str x) => x | x = (1..100000)};
increases the used memory at each call. Similar task with dict consumes
memory at the first call and the memory size remains unchanged at
subsequent calls.

Yep, I can reproduce that. Same in Pure 0.40, so it's apparently an old
bug as well. I will see that I can still fix that in Pure 0.41, too.

Thanks for reporting,
Albert

Fixed in r2959.
