On top of abovementioned problems I missed out this one:

canonicalize() may return an existing pointer as a value - so no
memory deallocation is needed, but it also may return a newly
allocated memory - for which deallocation is needed.   And currently
all the results returned from canonicalize() are not freed.

Please let me know how to fix this.

Thanks.
