Comment (by kcrisman):
> OK, I did find this error with a doctest. I don't remember which
doctest it was, but it was quite a few of them.

amount of RAM, other processes, etc. In my case it failed an existing
doctest on one computer, and passed on other computers.
If you wouldn't mind terribly just undoing this patch and seeing which one
it was, then we could add a nearly trivial patch adding a comment to that
doctest saying {{{also tests that :trac:`12858` is fixed}}} or something
like that.
> But also, anyone who understands how malloc and free work should see
instantly that the existing code has errors.
Since I don't really know C, I don't :) But presumably many other Sage
developers do...
