No I can't. I don't use Windows and I don't develop on Windows. I happily
leave the windows-specific libcurl development to others.
Besides, what would my checking it help? You can perfectly well test that on
your own, and if you still see a leak, my advice would be:
1 - since the leak is probably a fixed amount of memory that won't grow over
time I'd say you can safely ignore it and still be fine
or
2 - track down which OpenSSL call that doesn't free that memory, and see if
there's a flaw in OpenSSL or the way libcurl uses OpenSSL and suggest the
appropriate fix.
I of course assume that you first try the latest versions of libcurl and
OpenSSL to make sure that the problem hasn't already been adressed.
