gam_server leaks memory like crazy

Bug Description

I cannot spot the exact circumstances but quite often gam_server starts to leak
badly.
I astimate the rate to be 1GB/day.
This is just a hint but this may be connected with change of the icon theme.
I'll try
to monitor and check it further. The killing of gam_server does not help much.

a duplicate of #13449 if you use 5.10. If you use dapper feel free to
un-duplicate it

Sorry I forgot, 5.10. And BTW I was able to easily port .17 back to breezy with only
trivial amount of work (apt-src basically). So far it works fine.
 Maybe it should be pushed in updates into breezy?

Sorry, but duplication into 13449 is crap. 13449 is about Xorg. This is a specifical problem with gam_server on amd64 breezy badger.
