I agree, the documentation hints that those functions would do it for you.
But...
From a note under the Reference doc for MemHeapFreeBytes:
"An alternative approach is to just call the MemHeapCompact function as
necessary when an error is returned by the MemPtrNew or MemHandleNew
functions."
My philosophy with the many horrors of Palm documentation is:
If I cannot empirically verify it, err on the side of safety.
