This is really neat. But before you integrate it into anything else you build, consider that it appears to be a very old blob of C code. It took afl-fuzz something like 2 minutes to start finding wild free crashes†. This seems like a worthwhile thing to reimplement in a higher-level language.

† I don't know, maybe they've already done this work and ruled out anything bad from the dozens of unique crashes AFL trivially finds? I wouldn't want to pretend that I've done any serious inspection here.
