I think this isn't a good idea. Here's an example:

(defmethod expand-to-foreign-dyn (value var body (name (eql :string))) (if <string's size is appropriate for stack allocation> `(with-foreign-string (,var ,value) ,@body) *runtime-translator-form*))

Surely we want free-translated-object to be called in this case.

Or did I miss something?
