Wait, something just occurred to me: FRcvdPtr is of type FRcvdPtr, which is an
Array Of Bytes, i.e. a dynamic array. According to the Delphi documentation,
dynamic arrays are allocated on the Heap and referenced-counted, and
automatically freed when set to Nil by a garbage collector.
Wouldn't it be dangerous to call FreeMem() on it directly?
Since no exception is being thrown and it's been like this forever, I guess the
garbage collector is guarding against it; but since this is not documented I
don't think we should rely on it.
Or, am I missing something?
