PATCH: Small memory leak and doc fix

[Felix Rosencrantz <f_rosencrantz@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's another memory leak fix along with a small doc fix.

There seems to be some situations when the following code will see
uninitialized memory reads from the following stack:
	pattern_match  [compmatch.c:1035]
        match_str      [compmatch.c:577]
        comp_match     [compmatch.c:941]
        addmatches     [compcore.c:1954]
        bin_compadd    [complete.c:595]
I haven't looked into this, so if more details are needed let me know.

I took a look at some of the memory that wasn't freed, and found one of the
strings had a value that only came out of the value of complist
("ambiguous packed rows").  So something that touches that value has a problem.
Maybe a parameter operator.

I can see these errors even before the shell exits.  The memory checker
will only list a memory leak if there are no pointers in memory to a memory
block.  We are probably losing the pointer to the memory from buitlin.c:2162.
