reports memory leak in the following location when attached to valgrind.

Call stack

==28305==    at 0x401A824: malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:207)
==28305==    by 0x402A4D1: gssint_convert_name_to_union_name 
(g_glue.c:468)
==28305==    by 0x40279D1: gss_accept_sec_context 
(g_accept_sec_context.c:303)

function code
==============
OM_uint32 gssint_convert_name_to_union_name(minor_status, mech,
                                           internal_name, external_name)
    OM_uint32 *minor_status;
    gss_mechanism       mech;
    gss_name_t  internal_name;
    gss_name_t  *external_name;

    OM_uint32 major_status,tmp;
    gss_union_name_t union_name;

==>    union_name = (gss_union_name_t) malloc (sizeof
(gss_union_name_desc));


This issue is occurs both in version 1.5.4 and 1.6.3
