If dFree() is just free() now, is there a good reason not to remove it?

Yes, it matches dNew & dNew0 (mnemonic).

Also, it gets simpler to profile/debug memory allocation,
by instrumenting those primitives.

How about #define dFree() as free(), then?

Or #define free when you need to debug. Or use LD_PRELOAD.
