Use free function with __stdcall calling convention

[bg-greece]

I am porting a Visual C++ 6.0/SP5 DLL from __cdecl to __stdcall convention.
There seems to be a problem with the free function, the DLL produces a
segmentation fault when calling free(). I noticed that the free function
from stdlib.h is prototyped as __cdecl. Is there a problem to overcome this
and cast it to __stdcall?
