Summary: split_open > split_close leaks memory

Initial Comment:
Brian, I've been doing some profiling and found that:

split_info->max_off is being malloc'ed at line 372 of split.c

But not free'd at split_close(). I haven't looked thoroughly to see if it breaks anything but it looks like a free() at line 322-323 solves it.

Also, I haven't experienced it so far, but it looks that code under the condition at line 403 of split.c (checking if an image name is a directory and returning NULL) isn't freeing memory either and would be leaking.

I think these are all addressed in the new merged raw.c file from Rob
Joyce.
