      Currently the problem is that the __wti_block_ext_free function doesn't take in a double pointer. In the general case, this is okay and does not have any faults with regards to correctness issues. The function is hard to test because internally __wti_block_ext_free would do a copy-by-value of the pointer that is passed in. The __wt_free would only set the copy-by-value pointer to NULL and not the original pointer.
