llvm dev - Dec 2012 - [LLVMdev] Memory leaks after llvm_shutdown

Hi llvmdev!

In our project (Windows, Visual Studio compiler) we've got some frontend 
which generates LLVM IR. Now I'm observing strange *llvm_shutdown* behavior.

If I called it when I was done using the LLVM APIs I saw that 
destructors of static objects created new ManagedStatic objects, which 
was never freed.

Then I tried to use static global llvm_shutdown_obj to cause destruction 
of ManagedStatics after calling all static destructors. In that case I 
got "pure virtual function call" because of early release of 
BumpPtrAllocator::DefaultSlabAllocator.

Call stack for this case:
      msvcr100d.dll!_purecall()  Line 54 + 0x7 bytes    C
 > llvm_test.exe!llvm::BumpPtrAllocator::DeallocateSlabs(llvm::MemSlab * 
Slab)  Line 71 + 0x1b bytes    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::BumpPtrAllocator::~BumpPtrAllocator() Line 
30    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::LLVMContextImpl::~LLVMContextImpl() Line 128 + 
0xf3 bytes    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::LLVMContextImpl::`scalar deleting 
destructor'()  + 0x16 bytes    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::LLVMContext::~LLVMContext()  Line 62 + 0x38 
bytes    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::LLVMContext::`scalar deleting destructor'()  + 
0x16 bytes    C++
llvm_test.exe!llvm::object_deleter<llvm::LLVMContext>::call(void * Ptr)  
Line 32 + 0x37 bytes    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::ManagedStaticBase::destroy()  Line 68 + 0x10 
bytes    C++
      llvm_test.exe!llvm::llvm_shutdown()  Line 78 + 0xb bytes C++

Also I tried not to use GlobalContext object and created my own one. 
This method didn't help - GlobalContext was still lazy creating by 
PseudoSourceValue ctor .

I would understand to know if I did something wrong or is this a bug?
I made tests both on 3.1 and trunk builds.

Thank you in advance!
