psql doesn't leak memory. The increment was the result of new
history entry. src/common/exec.c does the following thing,
./common/exec.c:586: putenv(strdup(env_path));
./common/exec.c:597: putenv(strdup(env_path));
valgrind complains that the memory block allocated there is
definitely lost but it seems to be called once in lifetime of a
process.
