Wlandsman, that example doesn't sound particularly obscure to me -- it
seems like it could come up frequently when dealing with linked data
structures.

It's a little unusual that IDL has added garbage collection but kept
manual memory management intact. Most languages only offer one or the
other. It's pretty unusual for a language as high-level as IDL to
have manual memory management at all.
