I think Nicolas has not meant the patch to be really used - he suggested 
to create separate ff_bsf_peek_packet function which would just pass 
pointer to packet from internal bsf structure and do not allocate new 
packet structure each time the pointer to existing one is passed. In 
this case caller must not free the packet - just dereference it.
Try attached patch(es) - valgrind seems quite happy.

Jan
