John, It occurs to me that what you suggest has a subtle bug:
MemHandle h; void *p; h = MemHandleNew(100); p = MemHandleLock(h); // Use p for a while // ... MemPtrUnlock(p); MemPtrFree(p); By the time your reach MemPtrFree, p is invalid. You should never reference a pointer after the associated handle has been unlocked because it may move in memory. Admittedly it's not very likely that the pointer will be moved if MemPtrFree() immediately follows MemPtrUnlock, but it's still possible.
