I have played around with the mentioned pool of LLVMContexts around.
The patch doing that is attached.

Sadly the introduction of the ShaderMemoryManager breaks again
multithreading in a fatal way.

So, the attached patch seems to fix the races and should in theory help
for your observed leakage.
But only if applied to a state before the introduction of
ShaderMemoryManager...

Greetings
