Follow-up Comment #2:

I think this one is a matter of looking at the code, not verifying it by
runing PPP. This is definitively a memory leak and I agree to the fix. And
I've checked in.

I doubt that will break someone's code: if someone accessed an lwIP-internal
variable (outpacket_buf), and freed it, there should already be a check for !=
NULL, since you cannot know up to which point it worked.
