It turned out the file never got garbage-collected. After trying to
diagnose this leak for more than half a day I gave up and added a
workaround.

I haven't tested what happens if an application changes the icon
multiple times at runtime. While I expect it to work just fine (the
workaround does almost the same) it would be nice if you could
try it or name an application that does change its icon so I can test
it.
