The problem is that the xmalloc macro redirects directly to the internal
malloc implementation, whereas the xfree function calls it indirectly
through the free function.  The latter is seen by valgrind, the former
isn't, so it didn't track it.  Thus the xmalloc, xrealloc, xfree macros
need to be disabled if valgrind is used.
