I have a 0.21-fixes + vdpau build installed in my system, and yesterday, my
mythbackend started a memory leak.  It is consuming all of my memory and
crashing or I have to kill it.  It takes less than 24 hours to consume all
of my memory 3Gb.  Does anyone have any suggestions what to look for?

I've looked through the log, and the only thing suspicious is the following
filling my log:
