Thanks; I have some comments.

All memory allocated by a program is freed when the program exits.

If we are nitpicking, lets pick all the nits ;-)  Let's cast the size_t 
members to long (actually, unsigned long sounds better).  That way, we 
don't need to do anything if some day the size_t typedef changes.

Yuck!  Is this because of the "const char *" vs "char *" nuisance?  If 
so, won't simple cast or `unconst' do?
