I've replaced strdup with my own implementation that uses AllocVec as strdup probably uses malloc.
FreeVec probably doesn't work on malloc allocated memory?
Assuming you're on libnix (-noixemul): strdup -> malloc -> AllocPooled internally into your app's libnix pool.
You are right that FreeVed does not work on malloc allocated memory - you've got to use free. A mixup like that will also cause a leak, if you are lucky, or a total system crash.
