memory leak when performing the calculation CDF(I)^2 #4683
Description
Using sage 3.2 (compiled from sources) on a 32-bit Core Duo machine running Debian Etch,
when performing
georg@HILBERT:~/Daten/Sync/Phd/Code/sde$ sage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 3.2, Release Date: 2008-11-20 |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. |

sage: v = [CDF(i)^2 for n in range(50000)]
sage: v = [CDF(i)^2 for n in range(50000)]
sage: v = [CDF(i)^2 for n in range(50000)]
memory consumption increases about 70Mb which each command (at least on my machine),
this does not happen if one writes
sage: v = [CDF(i^2.) for n in range(50000)]
, however, results are the same,
