Can't see anything directly wrong with your grammar, except that you
should probably not be using global backtracking, even with memoizing.
Methods like free usually are pointing out that you have corrupted
memory somewhere in your own code, which malloc picks up when it tries
to free up the parser allocations.
If you download and install valgrind, assuming you have a Linux machine
available and given the proliferation of run from CD, run from USB, free
VM definitions, then you should ;-), then compile all your code in debug
mode and run it under valgrind. Valgrind will usually point out your
mistake instantly. It is possible there is something wrong in the
runtime, but the C runtime users tend to find this pretty quickly, if
there is.
