Tom Lane eba939551a Don't leak compiled regex(es) when an ispell cache entry is dropped. 
The text search cache mechanisms assume that we can clean up
an invalidated dictionary cache entry simply by resetting the
associated long-lived memory context.  However, that does not work
for ispell affixes that make use of regular expressions, because
the regex library deals in plain old malloc.  Hence, we leaked
compiled regex(es) any time we dropped such a cache entry.  That
could quickly add up, since even a fairly trivial regex can use up
tens of kB, and a large one can eat megabytes.  Add a memory context
callback to ensure that a regex gets freed when its owning cache
entry is cleared.

Found via valgrind testing.
This problem is ancient, so back-patch to all supported branches.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
