You are right that the above is inconsistent. Because the code
intends to be called only once in the lifetime of the program,
it calls get_merge_bases_many() with cleanup set to 0, so in that
sense, not freeing them anywhere may make it even more clear that
this function expects to be shortly followed by a process exit.

Just showing that I didn't think things deeply ;-) I do agree that a
fan-shaped history would show what we want to do a lot better.
Thanks.
