And guess what (sorry but this is funny :-) I suspect it does contain a 
bug.  Try:

	break main
	commands
	delete NN
	leak-memory
	end


The command ``leak-memory'' is invalid and will lead to an error() call 
and that will in turn long jump over the code that would free the list.

While the duplicate version contains the same bug, I suspect it is 
easier to fix vis:

	o	duplicate list
	o	add list to a cleanup
	o	run command
	o	do cleanups

I suspect to do this with the non-duplicate version you'll need to add a 
catch_exceptions() call (nee catch_errors()) and check the state of that 
->execute variable to figure out what to do.

I do tend to agree with Kevin though.  Some times simplicity is best.
