How do I report a suspected bug to INFORMIX?

While investigating some memory leak bugs in my code, I noticed that Purify was reporting suspected memory leaks in the INFORMIX libraries I was using. FYI, here's an example: Purify (mlk): 130048 total bytes lost, allocated from: malloc [handler, pc=0x1226c] _sqrealloc [handler, pc=0x1265b4] _sqg_desc [handler, pc=0x12d0c0] _sqr_desc [handler, pc=0x1294a0] _iqprepare [handler, pc=0x122068] _iqnprep [handler, pc=0x121d1c] 40 bytes (25 times) + 35 bytes (60 times) + 33 bytes (35 times) + 26 bytes (4 times) + 20 bytes (6 times). Last memory leak at 0x4008f480 What you're seeing is a stack trace of code point where memory is malloc'ed but not freed. I don't want you all to fix this problem for me (unless someone from INFORMIX recognizes the problem, of course). I would simply like to forward the output to INFORMIX for investigation.
