 Good morning.[[BR]]
 Running valgrind on the attached test program, reveals that broadcasting a
 single boolean variable leaks memory. The new created data-type is not
 freed after its usage (and this causes the leak).[[BR]]
 Demonstration: if you try to re-build the attached test program with
 -DLEAK_WORKAROUND, and then run it under valgrind again, the leak is
 disappeared.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 May you fix this bug, please ?[[BR]]

 Best regards.[[BR]]
