----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 Calling libssh2_session_startup results in a memory leak which is not
 rectified by libssh_sesion_free.

 Steps to reproduce:
 - Change the attached "main.c" to the username and password for your
 server
 - Compile using gcc, linking with -lssh2
 - Run under valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full

 Expected result: no errors or memory leaks
 Actual result: 2 memory leaks found (see attached valgrind.txt)

 This bug is present in the latest Ubuntu repo version (1.1) as well as the
 latest release (1.2.4).
