[PATCH 03/25] syntax-check: fix violations and re-enable sc_cast_of_argument_to_free.

[Gary V. Vaughan]

* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-fix): Remove
sc_cast_of_argument_to_free from list of disabled checks.
* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/libltdl/lt__alloc.h,
libltdl/lt__dirent.c: Casting argument to free is never
necessary.
