Sorry there is a leak problem in my recent patch(https://github.com/saitoha/mintty-sixel/commit/7b6bf811ba617e68a6717cbb5e06cb21470207c6). I confirmed current mintty `master` does not have this problem.

Leak problems in `master` are fixed by https://github.com/mintty/mintty/issues/595 Another leak problem in `dec-locator` branch is fixed by saitoha/mintty-sixel@e92d9a5
