Sorry for typo.

I agree this code is correct, but anyway something trashing the heap
when this code is active. Maybe code somewhere has va_malloc() and
corresponding free() instead of va_free(), but this situation is hard
to check. I've checked vice versa situation when malloc()/va_free() is
used, and have not found any cases. Memory heap corruption is 100%
reproducible using H.264 codec, but when posix_memalign() is used, all
goes fine, because free() and va_free() are the same.
