Yes, it was intended to be simple and despite the fact that I've not
updated the code in 3 years, I have been using it the entire time (on a
system that doesn't segfault when that memory is free()'d :)
I don't malloc the memory, so I have no right to free it. I'm not exactly
sure who does malloc the memory, but, hopefully they will clean it up :)

I wasn't aware (until you contacted me) that the code was being shipped
with Torque! It came as quite a surprise to me. I'm honored, for sure :)
I'm still having problems getting in touch with the developers of the
Torque project to get these issues fixed.
