Stonie,

I believe this is a memory leak issue in the rsl library. I found one that will
lose 3200 bytes every time a sweep is encountered with no radials. On
a test file yesterday, I observed 12,800 byes lost every time the file was read.
That may be a problem over a loop that runs for a while, but can't say how long
it would be before OSX started to have trouble.

At any rate, I'm fixing that up now.
