memory for destructors, which happens since the dynamic linker calls
atexit(), which calls malloc() prior to valgrind starting, so valgrind
complains because it didn't see that memory allocated.
+ *) From the the ELF spec "...All shared object initializations happen
+ before the executable file gains control. ... Before the initialization
+ code for any object A is called, the initialization code for any other
+ objects that object A depends on are called. For these purposes, an object
+ A depends on another object B, if B appears in Ads list of needed objects
+ (recorded in the DT_NEEDED entries of the dynamic structure). The order of
+ initialization for circular dependencies is undefined." uClibc's shared
+ lib loader should be fixed to run ctors in the specified order.
