Hi Stefan, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner about this. I did take a
look at the H5PartWriteDataFloat64 call, and as far as I can tell, the leak
you are seeing is coming from deeper in the HDF5 library. I've cc'ed Quincey,
who can hopefully have someone at the HDF Group look into this. I'm guessing
that H5MM_xstrdup is returning a malloc'd string to H5P_remove that isn't
being free'd. Thanks, Mark
