What kind of issue do you have? To me the vlc_object_t counter is only  
retaining the variable associated references. It should also add a  
reference count to the malloc of the libvlc object, but that's all.

Libvlc_event_manager better be light, given it's used everywhere. I am  
wondering what kind of issue you have with it.
