How much memory does it leak?

My Emacs built from CVS 2008-02-22 is consuming a lot of memory:

 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
3881 leo       20   0  145m 122m  10m R  3.0 12.3  40:49.61 emacs

Has this GTK bug been fixed in gtk+ 2.12.x?

[GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.8) of 2008-02-22]

Thank you,
