Can you file a full bugreport?  I always compile without optimization,
but never have seen this message.   At the end of a .ly file, a
garbage collect is executed, and after that there should not be any
objects related to the .ly file (like context definitions and music
objects).  If they are found subsequently, it means somebody held on
to references, possibly leaking memory.
