Valgrind complains about memory leak in CppUnit::TextTest::r

Here is the usage:

#include <cppunit/CompilerOutputter.h>
#include <cppunit/extensions/TestFactoryRegistry.h>
#include <cppunit/ui/text/TestRunner.h>

int main( )
{
// Get the top level suite from the registry
CppUnit::Test *suite = CppUnit::TestFactoryRegistry::getRegistry().makeTest();

// Adds the test to the list of test to run
CppUnit::TextUi::TestRunner runner;
runner.addTest( suite );

// Change the default outputter to a compiler error format outputter
runner.setOutputter( new CppUnit::CompilerOutputter( &runner.result(),
std::cerr ) );

// Run the tests.
bool wasSucessful = runner.run();

// Return error code 1 if the one of test failed.
return wasSucessful ? 0 : 1;
}

Here is the valgrind output (running on Linux):
