Looks like memory corruption if a path is being read in memory free'd by libgcrypt.

It could be a use-after-free:
1) cadet frees some memory but still has a pointer to it
2) libgcrypt allocates the memory, uses it, then frees it
3) cadet tries to access the memory using its dangling pointer
4) valgrind tells us cadet tried to access memory freed by libgcrypt

No longer relevant after CADET rewrite.
