Hello together.

While looking for a strange memory leak on the Renegade Community Marathon server, I found a leak in the standard library of Visual C++ 2005 (more precise, in istream and ostream classes). The problem affects all modifications using STL istream and ostream classes (e.g. for file IO) such as SSGM for example.
When googling for the problem, I found out that the bug has been fixed with Service Pack 1 and suggest, that you upgrade if you not yet did so.
