Yes: the program is buggy (reads freed memory) and therefore its
behaviour after that point is of course dependent on what free()
does.  I expect that if you link with a debugging malloc library
that (eg) memset-0xAA's freed memory then you will also see it
behaving differently, even when not run on Valgrind.
