Use strace and find out what spills those messages.  Looks like a
debugging output but I have no idea from where.

At least addresses apparently passed to free() appear to be in
(membot,memtop) interval but they all are odd numbers which end
in "24d" and that does not look right.  For what it is worth
"4d" is an ascii for "M".
