I think the documentation is obsolete. According to the code in 
gtkmm-2.2.0/gtk/gtkmm/treepath.cc:

TreePath::~TreePath()
{
 if(gobject_)
   gtk_tree_path_free(gobject_);
}

so it seems to me that the destructor already does the work for you when 
the object returned by
get_path() is destroyed (which occurs when it falls out of scope).
