it was to stop crashes with code that had been cast and was freed with

Allocating with new and freeing with free() is a coding error in all
books.
There may be nothing like that left to worry about now.
I sure hope not.
valgrind reports it as an error. I think I recall seeing gcc 4.3+ report
it as a warning which we catch with -Werror. The older ones (ala gcc 2.*
and 3.* did not AFAIK, thus the high potential for flashing lights and
sound effects).
