--- Comment #3 from Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com> ---
Hi Zhangyn2012,

  Thanks for reporting this bug.  Unfortunately I do not feel that it is
  worth trying to fix it.  Leaking 200 bytes when decoding a corrupt 
  binary is just too trivial.  The memory will be returned to the system
  when objdump exits, and objdump will exit.  Plus if the binary input
  was not malformed then the memory would have been returned earlier.
  So sorry, but I am not going to fix this one.

Cheers
  Nick
