It works fine on glibc and I don't remember that it ever failed.  What

gee:~/tmp:[0]$ gcc -Wall free-null.c 
./gee:~/tmp:[0]$ ./a.out 
After free (NULL)
gee:~/tmp:[0]$ 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int
main (void)
{
  free (NULL);
  printf ("After free (NULL)\n");
  return 0;
}
