I've worked in pascal bindings for some time, and I never expected
to free the results of getters, as I always tougth the getters are
just simple convenience functions for us (binders makers), like:
 foo_get_bar()
 {
   return(foo->bar);
 }
so we don't need to translate the structs...

just my 0.0000000000002 cents,
