Right now, there is no way to do that.
We should add a method -probabely using PixelReadConvertor::Squeeze()-

I think all the gdcm guys are on hollydays (I was just back in Lyon 
for a few hours, and I cannot make any commit from the Internet Café 
...)

Do you mean you write the pixels into a file, after reading them?
Why don't you delete the FileHelper at this moment?

The FileHelper is not aware that pixels are already deleted; It tries 
again to delete them, and you get the seg fault.
