This change log entry is not sufficient. It doesn’t state why this is a good
change. As you do in your bug, but more briefly, you need to state the benefit
of the change: Less memory used after an abort(), presumably.

We can’t land a patch with a line like this. You need to change this line into
an explanation of why it’s OK to make this change without adding any new tests.
