I can confirm it at least on MAC OS X and Linux. Based on IEEE Std
1003.1-2008, if the argument of the free function is null, no action
should occur. So I guess most POSIX compliant environments support the
NULL argument.

I'll agree with that if we know for sure that free(NULL) is
universally supported. You mentioned "a few man pages" -- how
universal is this support?
