I'm not sure this really is a leak.

This "leak" is only in the windows version and since we only use one single
call in the winmm dll, we can be pretty sure that it is that single one that
causes this! ;-)
timeval.c:61 => timeGetTime();
I tried to google around for some answers on this "leak" but I couldn't find
anything indicating that this could cause a leak like this.
You can of course try to re-compile lib/timeval.c with WITHOUT_MM_LIB
defined, as then it'll use the former version of the gettimeofday()
replacement function instead.
