Ah.  Here's your problem.   ^^^^ That should be AllocPotBits(MASK, PotgoBase).
<  if (allocmask != MASK) {
<    printf("error blah blah...");
<    FreePotBits(allocmask);
                 ^^^^^^^^^ FreePotBits(allocmask, PotgoBase)
<    exit(0);
<  } // end if
<
<  FreePotBits(allocmask);
               ^^^^^^^^^ ditto.
<// end of program fragment
