Comment:

 subtle!  I'll merge it.  One question: what is up with the
 {{{
    foo *p = thing->the_foo;
    thing->the_foo = NULL;
    foo_free(p);
 }}}
 pattern?  Why not just
 {{{
    foo_free(thing->the_foo);
    thing->the_foo = NULL;
 }}}
 ?

 It doesn't look bad to me, but I want to understand the point of it.
