I've got a local patch that changes these to actually be freed as yet
another route we could go.  It's mixed with a few (half-baked)
revision-related memory cleanups that should be separated, and I'm
unsure if there are other places that would need a finalize_globals()
call too, but it's another approach to consider...

Subject: [RFC PATCH] Make merge-ort run leak check free

Tweaks to revision walking, adding a chdir_deregister_all() (so that all
watchers can be cleared as well as free'ing their associated memory),
and maybe other stuff.
