            Bug ID: 16537
           Summary: operator+ with strings leaks memory
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

Created attachment 7397
  --> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=7397&action=edit
revised testcase that includes string operator+

Playing with this patch, and extending the testcase to use a string-like class
I see the value being leaked.

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-02/msg00005.html

Attached my revised version of the testcase in the above patch.
Here is the script I used to exercise it.
Compare valgrind output with n = 100 vs n = 1000.

valgrind gdb --batch -x loop.gdb

n = 100
