My face is red, as suspected the fault is mine and is stupid.  I'm
freeing a pointer and THEN trying to increment it.
Code something like:
X	for(cp = &head[198]; cp >= head; --cp)
X		free(cp + 1);
X	free(head);
works as expected.  People abuse the bugs in compilers, but in many
instances, they are very forgiving of fools such as I.
