How does free() know how much memory to return to the heap?  Does it have
to be the originally malloc()ed pointer or can it be a different pointer
to the memory that was allocated?  I'm writing a linked list and keeping
pointers to each element around kinda defeats the purpose...  thanks in
advance for any help
