it has unfortunately diverged in some calls indeed.

AFAICS that scheme would only guarantee everything has been freed if the
caller calls ctx_free() at appropriate points. If libxl were used in a
daemon, for example, it would not be simple to come up with a scheme
that guarantees memory bounds that are independent from uptime.

This scheme is already in place in the ocaml binding
