> Why H5free_memory and not just H5free? ;-)

If I saw "H5free" in an API, I'd start looking for "H5malloc".

Similarly, if I saw "H5free_memory" I'd think someone didn't know C
custom is to use "free".

H5free_buffers gives some indication that they're long-lived storage
locations and likely not to be mucked with casually.
