Mathieu, yes, I confirm the leaks are fixed in quantal and raring via code inspection (but not actual testing). Additionally, I did some digging into fontconfig and it looks like they are false positives since 2008. I'm experimenting with a valgrind suppression file so we don't have to deal with these in the future.

Jeffrey, nice script. I notice in my valgrind log that although the nm-applet leaks are gone, there are still a few dbus and other leaks, which makes sense given the context of your script. I bet they haven't all been backported to 12.04 yet. Something to keep investigating...
