Hello again.

Below is C++ code for a fairly simple program which exhibits the 
apparent handle leaks I described in my previous posting.   I linked 
this with the standard STL rather than STLPort and it makes no 
difference.   This is compiled to an EXE, not a DLL like my real 
application.

Again, please feel free to point out if I'm doing somethign wrong.

Thanks
