When the obj.hash method of an element in a nested Set data structure throws an exception from within Set#flatten, a memory leak occurs.
The reason is that the exception prevents the working data structure allocated by set_do_flatten() from being freed.

• mruby revision: commit b18a99c

• build: rake -m clean all

• file: set-memleak.rb

  s = Set[Set[a = Object.new]]
  class << a
    def hash
      0 / 0
    end
  end
  s.flatten
