Hi.

In the ODBC library, there's space allocated by MR_GC_NEW and explicitly
freed with MR_GC_free. This confuses me. Shouldn't space allocated by
MR_CG_NEW be deallocated by the garbage collector? If it is to be
deallocated explicitly, shouldn't the space be allocated by MR_NEW and be
deallocated by MR_free?

Cheers,
Volker
