Ouch.
Yes, I assigned the return value back to my list variable.
Yes, I was thinking it compared contents.  But then I assume a glist can
contain
anything, not just strings.

So then, I should not be freeing the malloc'ed variables I am appending to
my glist, correct?  Because the glist is storing only the pointer and if I
free the malloc'ed variable the pointer will not be valid any longer.

I beg your forgiveness for these simpleton questions.
