Subject: rb_raise and memory

In re.c(make_regexp):

    rp = ALLOC(Regexp);
    MEMZERO((char *)rp, Regexp, 1);
    rp->buffer = ALLOC_N(char, 16);
    rp->allocated = 16;
    rp->fastmap = ALLOC_N(char, 256);
    if (flags) {
        rp->options = flags;
    }
    err = re_compile_pattern(s, len, rp);

    if (err != NULL) {
        rb_reg_raise(s, len, err, 0);
    }
    return rp;

As rb_raise is implemented with longjmp, won't this leed to
memory-leaks?  I have code that works similar to this, so I'd really
like to know, so that I can clean up before I call rb_raise if
necessary,
