Failure to cut allocation size back to that required is a quality of implementation detail, and again does not affect standards compliance. I am sorry to hear GPC does not do this. I suggest you check out the new 2.1 version, which was just released, and may do this reduction. In todays world of monstrous virtual memory spaces it is less important than it used to be.
Indeed, and since it also entails a danger (since changing the tag is not prevented, AFIAK), I'm not sure we should do it.
