>Description:
in /usr/src/gnu/lib/libdialog/gauge.c, 
there is a "newwin()" at the beginning of function dialog_gauge(), 
but no "delwin()" at the end. 
>How-To-Repeat:
in /usr/share/examples/libdialog/gauge.c, 
change "usleep(30000)" to "usleep(3000000)", 
compile and run, watch the memory usage, 
we will find it is growing continuously. 
>Fix:
add a "delwin(gw);" at the end of function dialog_gauge() 
in /usr/src/gnu/lib/libdialog/gauge.c.
