Because you have a memory problem with your MUD scribbling over malloc()'s
internal structures. Fix your memory problem and free() won't crash
anymore.
Examples include strcpy()'ing a 8k string into a 1k buffer and accessing
buf[8192] of a 8192 character buffer. Another problem is using buf[-1]
which is really awful. :)
