This problem has been solved, with help from Dave Hill.
The leak is in Xft-2.0-1 (not an Ada/GtkAda problem at all!)
The full explanation is on the RedHat site:
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2002-305.html
The leak was triggered because I was using VNC, which lacks the X RENDER extension.
This explains how other users hadn't seen this problem.
Thank you Dave for helping solve this mystery!
