I'm applying it but only after changing it to zfree(&pos->free_str), to
make sure that any othe rcode that may still hold a pointer to pos will
see a NULL in ->free_str and crash sooner rather than later.

And the following should be in a different patch

And this one in another, I'll fix this up, but please try in the future
to provide different patches for different fixes, so that if we
eventually find out that one of the unrelated fixes is wrong, then we
can revert the patch more easily with 'git revert' instead of having to
do a patch that reverts just part of the bigger hodge-podge patch.

If you go and have a track record of doing this as piecemeal as
possible, I will in turn feel more confident of processing your patches
in a faster fashion ;-) :-)

Thanks,
