Hi,

I've found a memory leak in the compiler: there are extra INC_(SAVE/RESTORE)_POINTER
in compile_block and _gst_make_constant that create a leak.

Once the object is allocated and protected in a context (ie created by save_pointer) once leaving the function they should be either protected or added in a protected object
otherwise they could be GCed

The patch remove those extra INC_(SAVE/RESTORE)_POINTER protection

Gwen
