gollark: Hi. I'm using some low-level bindings for a C library (cmark) which has `new_thing` and `free_thing` functions for parsers/AST nodes/etc. As of now I just have a function which allocates things, uses them, and deallocates them with a bunch of `defer`s, but now I need a function doing somewhat different operations on them.

gollark: I mean, if it was open, could they not just have deleted it?
