I guess I never ran it under valgrind with a backend that used the
private data.  Now, you should use the talloc context if possible (which
the talloc_destroy() will free()), but for things like an connection to
a socket (like security=server does) this is indeed quite valid...

File a bug on bugzilla.samba.org - bonus points for including a patch. 
Assign it to me.

Thanks for picking it up!
