Slightly redundant mention of "prefix_path". Also, prevailing custom
is to drop capitalization.

I'd probably turn this sentence fragment into a proper sentence:

    As of d089eba (...), prefix_path() always returns a newly
    allocated string, so free its result unconditionally.

Imperative mood:

    Additionally, drop the const from variables to which the
    prefix_path() result is assigned so they can be free()'d
    without having to cast-away constness.

Thanks, this version looks much better.

FWIW, with or without addressing the very minor nits above:
