Comment(by mloskot <mateusz@…>):

 By the way, I've also noticed that the name of parameter is incorrect and
 it should be ''detect_memory_leaks''. If I ask to disable memory leak with
 ''_leak' version the leaks are still being detected:

 {{{
 C:\>test.exe --detect_memory_leak=0
 Test setup error: test tree is empty
 Detected memory leaks!
 Dumping objects ->
 {211} normal block at 0x027FA3E8, 516 bytes long.
  Data: <                > 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 F4 01 00 00
 {210} normal block at 0x027FA2B8, 256 bytes long.
  Data: <                > 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
 Object dump complete.
 }}}

 but if I try ''_leaks'' variant of the parameter, leaks check are
 effectively disabled:

 {{{
 C:\>test.exe --detect_memory_leaks=0
 Test setup error: test tree is empty
 }}}
