Comment # 1 on bug 12497 from 
ddict_free() is calling g_free() on some pointers only if the pointers are
null, not if they're non-null, and thus not freeing what those pointers point
to.

free() and g_free() will do nothing when passed null pointers, so the pointer
check can either be fixed (by removing the !) or simply removed.

As Jeff Morriss points out, ddict_free() is never called, so this bug currently
has no effect.  Lowering the priority as a result.
