Your analysis is very likely incorrect.

You may cause the same "leak" without GMP.  Just malloc a set of large
chunks of different sizes.  Access them to make sure it is actually
there, then free them in some random order.  Often the free calls will
not have given back the memory to the system.  Still, that's no memory
leak in the sense you seem to suggest.
