If you mean the API call SrmSetReceiveBuffer (or its deprecated version 
SerSetReceiveBuffer)... this means that the address of any replacement memory buffer 
you pass in as a parameter will not be automatically freed when the port is closed. 
The OS does not know if the buffer was allocated using MemPtrNew, or was allocated as 
part of a larger structure, etc.
