Oh, I see; thank you for the correction. And even if someone put an
application_name into their postgresql.conf, and then changed it a
bunch of times, we'd free the leaked memory from the config_cxt that's
created in ProcessConfigFile().

Is there a reason we don't provide a similar temporary context during
InitializeGUCOptions()? Naively it seems like that would suppress any
future one-time leaks, and maybe cut down on some Valgrind noise. Then
again, maybe there's just not that much demand for pallocs during GUC
hooks.

Thanks,
