From what I understand of your feedback, it doesn't seem that a version
bump is going to solve anything for anyone -- neither old code nor new.
Unless I've gone mad and it's illegal to try to free a NULL pointer. :-)

Oh hang on...  When rcmd() and rcmd_af() free the ahost allocations, do
they set the pointer to NULL afterwards?  If not, they should, and then
we have no problem but the unavoidable memory leaks for old code.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
