EurekaLog
Leak reporting returns some 20 ActRec leak descriptions.
Does anyone know what they describe?  They seem to describe sort of a unit reference, and not a variable, object or line reference.
Instance count is always 1. Sizes vary from 24 to 48 bytes - with an outlier that is 20k+.

    I hope you are not chasing ghosts.  Did you read my reply in EurekaLog support?

    It could be an anonymous proc: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9282103/anonymous-method-in-project-leaks-memory

    XX$ActRec are the names of the classes generated by the compiler that are behind anonymous methods. Most often leaks of them are caused by anonymous methods in initialization parts of units or the main of the dpr.

    Kevin McCoy - I've read it. These ghosts are ... persistent :P
    David Berneda/ Stefan Glienke  - That looks very much like the issue.  
    http://qc.embarcadero.com/wc/qcmain.aspx?d=78066 offers a couple of workarounds.
