I think there is a mistake in line 55:
L.DomEvent.off(this._popup, "mouseout", this._popupMouseOut, this);

To detach de event i think you must use this._popup._container or this event will never be detached.

Any way, I propose another change, change the position of this line after the "target == this._icon" check.

What you think?
