Important pieces:

export G_SLICE=always-malloc
export G_DEBUG=gc-friendly
cd ../.. && make install && cd tests/memory
valgrind --tool=massif .libs/memory-test

It shouldn't show a leak if you use G_DEBUG=gc-friendly and G_SLICE=always-malloc. If you don't, it will show something that looks very much like a leak. That's the slab allocator and glice stuff keeping instances of allocations around.
