Hi Atin,

The inputs I use are as per the requirements of a project I am working on
for one of the large finance institutions in Dubai. I will try to handle
the input validation within my code.  I uncovered some of the issues while
doing a thorough testing of my code.

I tried with 3.7.6 and also my own build from master branch.  I will check
with my superiors before sending you backtrace and other details.  So far,
I have seen memory leak in 100s of KBs.
