Calls to free() have now been reintroduce in the new()
function to quiet coverity warnings. Those free's were
removed originally as that library 'new' was returning
with a fatal error and a caller should end abnormally.
Plus, it is virtually impossible to fail a malloc call
under linux. And lastly, they required braces with the
if statement making the code considerably less pretty.
