Comment (by Quozl):

 The memory leak in the X server process is in mmap bytes, not in user-
 space malloc bytes;

 {{{
 -bash-4.2# gdb /usr/bin/Xorg $(pgrep -f 'X :0')
 (gdb) call malloc_stats()
 $3 = 30

 Arena 0:
 system bytes     =    6864896
 in use bytes     =    6731136
 Total (incl. mmap):
 system bytes     = 1316687872
 in use bytes     = 1316554112
 max mmap regions =        873
 max mmap bytes   = 1309822976
 }}}

 and may correlate to a batch blit operation failure that is reported in
 /var/log/olpc-dm-X.error.log;

 {{{
 [    84] gcmERR_BREAK: status=-3(gcvSTATUS_OUT_OF_MEMORY) @
 gco2D_BatchBlit(2845)
 .

 }}}
