 Please try the suggestions in libgc/doc/debugging.html.
 You could also try a binary search in the alphaX gc versions to see if
 it's a problem in libgc and when it started (Sebastien is an expert in
 this:-).

+I don't see any memory leak here.
+However, this depends on how you define memory leak.  Mono needs to
+keep some memory for itself, so what you need to do is running this
+test case three times with a different iteration count and look at the
+`ps' output.
+
+I tried iteration counts 100.000, 1.000.000 and 10.000.000 and I'm
+always getting a RSS of around 6100 and a VSIZE of around 23000.  If
+it was leaking memory, these values would increase with a higher
+iteration count.
