Hi friends,

i detected a memory leak in ncurses version 5.7. In file 
ncurses-5.7/ncurses/base/safe_sprintf.c at line 115, the function will return 
-1 without freeing the memory, allocated to variabel 'format'.

The memory leak was detected by using the static code analysis tool cppcheck. I 
used the following command:

cppcheck -q ncurses-5.7/
[ncurses-5.7/ncurses/base/safe_sprintf.c:115]: (error) Memory leak: format

thanks (I added this to my to-do list last week)
