In fact, protecting with Try..Except does not generate the leak. I will try
to reproduce this error again. I noticed this behavior in my FCGI APP: a
client was sending a mal-formed XML content and my app was generating the
leaks.

My environment: Linux Debian Stretch 64 bits - Lazarus 1.6.4 - fpc 3.0.2.

I'm quite impressed with the processing power of fastcgi fcl-web
applications: they consume little memory (less than 2 MB per instance) and
are very fast to process the requests.
