Given the following code:

typedef struct foostruct {
     struct foostruct * next;
     char *             charvar;
     int                intval;
} foo;

int main(void)
{
     foo  *  pbar1 = (foo *)malloc(sizeof(foo));

     pbar1->next = (foo *)malloc(sizeof(foo));

     pbar1->next->charvar = (char *)malloc(strlen(SomeString)+1);

     strcpy(pbar1->next->charvar, SomeString);

Now, after I've used the variables in various (nefarious) ways, I need 
to free them.  However, if I go

free(pbar1->next->charvar);

the system (in debug mode) throws an assertion.  Does anybody have an 
idea why?
