Remove unnecessary pfree's in geometric operators. At least one of these

is actively dangerous, per bug report from Ewald Geschwinde 14-May-02,
and several of the rest look suspicious to me.  Since there is no longer
any significant value in retail pfree's in these functions, just get
rid of all of them for safety's sake.
