Ah, that.

Yes, I did rebase it to 'maint' to be nice to our users as this is
not a new feature development but a bugfix or two.

This is why I hate the leak-check CI job (yes, I do help maintain
all parts of the tree, but it does not mean I have to love every bit
of the codebase, and this is one of the things I love to hate).

Instead of saying "subcommand X with feature Y? It ought to be clean
so complain if leak checker find something. subcommand Z? It is
known to be unclean, so do not bother", it says "In this test in
entirety, we currently happen to use only the ones that are clean"
and penalizes developers who wants to use an unclean tool merely for
checking.  The approach is fundamentally flawed and does not play
well with multiple integration branches, just like we saw here.
