That didn't really help.
The problem, surprisingly, came back to this:
ap_table_set( rdc->rivet_user_vars, var, string );
in Rivet_UserConf.
It leaks memory somehow... maybe it's creating the string in there
each time and it gets spun out into the void *. I'm not sure - we
need to find a way around it:-/ I'm not married to the uservars, but
I can see how they would be useful...

I think what must be happening is that the table is created with a
server pool, so each time it goes through user conf, it just adds
stuff there, and it never gets cleaned up. Hrm... bad stuff.
Thinking about ways to fix it.
