The messages occur when closing GIMP, because internal book-keeping is
not adding up. Pixel data is what takes up the largest amount of
memory in GIMP and there is extra mechanisms reporting any suspicious
balances at shutdown, actual problem is related to the actions youv'e
taken during the session, repeatable steps are valuable. And if
repeating the steps you are able to make the count of leaked buffers
go higher we have a problematic memory leak.
