- Easy to use best-practice
- Helps people write correct code for the most common cases
- Protect against leaks (free if there's an exception, or even if someone uses a trace point to get hold of the object)
- Protect against deallocation latency (free as soon as you're done)
- Protect against non-locality (free while it's still in cache from your using it)

Suggested change
| if (f == NULL) { | |
| if (!f) { |
Because we don't use == NULL in other places.

Could you remove needless raise? raise in assert_raise may confuse us.
Suggested change
| Pointer.malloc(10) { |ptr| raise } | |
| Pointer.malloc(10) { |ptr| } |
