You're correct, i'll fix it in v2.

I think this is incorrect: r is a static variable, and if it is
not set to NULL, it will be reused at next call.
The point of these changes is not to leave any memory allocated after
the test is done, regardless of whether it will be reused again.
Ideally, removing the static variable would be better than just
resetting the value to NULL, but it will require more modifications:
add a ring argument to test function, and change return -1 -> goto fail.
...or rewrite it with the testsuite and do proper setup and teardown :)
Anyway, i'll implement the suggestion in v2.
