paying for the sin of no unit tests: useless-if-before-free bug

I noticed that I'd broken my useless-if-before-free script.
It would only notice the useless tests if there were
a cast on the argument to the free-like function.

I've just pushed this correction and will add unit tests.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix broken useless-if-before-free script.

* build-aux/useless-if-before-free: Fix typo: missing "?" after
the expression to match cast of argument to free-like function.
