Comment(by andrea):

 I have a repro for this; I've just attached valgrind output, edited to
 remove non-channel/cmux-related warnings and sort the detect leaks into
 functionally related groups.  To summarize, there are three basic groups
 of a definite leak and a matching number of plainly related indirect leaks
 [1].  The first group flows through channel_tls_handle_incoming() (six
 channels appear to have leaked) and the second leaks in identical fashion
 but via channel_tls_connect() for seven channels.  The third functional
 group consists of a single leaked channel_listener_t.

 [1] All share a common stack trace prefix, except for one set of
 indirectly leaked blocks each with chanid_circid_muxinfo_map_HT_GROW()
 instead, apparently from the first circuit attached to each of the
 affected channels.
