33 /* FUNCTION
34 Free block of memory associated with a given MemHandler structure.
36 INPUTS
37 freeList - Pointer to the MemHeader structure
38 memoryBlock - Pointer to the memory to be freed
39 byteSize - Size of the block
41 RESULT
43 NOTES
44 The start and end borders of the block are aligned to
45 a multiple of sizeof(struct MemChunk) and to include the block.
