It seems to me that in library units you pretty much have to use 
Unchecked_Deallocation because you don't know much about the memory 
requirements or constraints of the calling application. However, if you 
are creating an abstract data type and you hide the deallocation in a 
Finalize procedure, you probably aren't going to have a lot of trouble.
