[vtkusers] memory leak

[Bill Lorensen]

We run purify every night on vtk and have been for about 4 years. We try to keep the leaks to zero, but this is only on code we test nightly (about 70% of vtk). There are some leaks that we cannot control, e.g. in Tcl or X, or OpenGL. Can you be more specific?
