archive with some example apps to reproduce the bug

WebkitGtk seems to leak memory when using css shadows. 
On my machine with webkit-nightly (72146) it leaks about 0.3 Mb/s when doing some moderate clicking on the element in the example.

To reproduce do:
1) Load the url (http://droppy.lophus.org/cvDCE-index.html) in Epiphany and click or hover the element and watch the memory increase.
2) see the attached examples (./build.sh to compile and ./example or python example.py to run). The symptoms are the same here, when clicking or hovering.

Same for me here! With Midori, Epiphany and the examples attached by Krisoffer.

Thanks for reporting, I've fixed the two leaks in the shadows code found with valgrind.
