+ - Fixed memory leaks that could occur when reading a dataset from a
+ malformed file

+ When attempting to read layout, pline, and efl information for a
+ dataset, memory leaks could occur if attempting to read pline/efl
+ information threw an error, which is due to the memory that was
+ allocated for pline and efl not being properly cleaned up on error.
