What steps will reproduce the problem?
$ cat test.cpp
#include <gflags/gflags.h>
#include <glog/logging.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
google::InitGoogleLogging(argv[0]);
google::ShutdownGoogleLogging();
google::ShutDownCommandLineFlags();
}
$ g++ test.cpp -lglog -lgflags && valgrind --leak-check=full ./a.out
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect no leaks. Instead I see:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.3.2, Ubuntu raring (but can reproduce with 0.3.3)
Please provide any additional information below.
It appears to be result from this flag in src/logging.cc:
GLOG_DEFINE_string(logmailer, "/bin/mail",
"Mailer used to send logging email");
replacing this with std::string FLAGS_logmailer("/bin/mail"); avoids the leak.
