No need to debug this, it's quite obvious what's going on (see my first
comment).  Don't think there's any real *fix* here other than using GC.malloc
to allocate the memory instead of cstdlib.malloc.

The GC does not track memory allocated outside of the GC, and it is unwise to
think that GC'd memory is safe from collection if it's only being referenced by
raw malloc'd memory.
