This happened to me a little under a year ago, and it was the rear heater
core.  I ignored it, until one night I was driving home in an antifreeze
sauna...literally.  The van was full of steam and everything was wet with
antifreeze.  I was lucky enought to find this list as a result of that
experience, so it wasn't all bad!
Good luck!
