This issue existed before, but the other callers of match_heads() only
call it once before the process terminates, and don't bother to free
what it returns. So those callers didn't notice. This topic introduces
the first caller that calls match_heads() repeatedly, so it frees the
returned ref list after it has copied out what it needs.
The change is independent and can be moved anywhere in the series, or
even introduced as a patch independent of the series itself. Which
would you prefer? (Actually, would you mind just applying it how you
see fit?)
