Many C++ projects that have their own memory management systems. This is especially the case for games (which often have their own scripting system, which would like to make use of a DAP library to debug them). Often times these games will redefine `free` via a macro to invoke their own memory mangement functions. If `free()` gets defined as a macro, attempting to compile `any.h` will cause the compiler to explode. I note that this is a private function that is only used within `any.h` and it's only used twice, so this should not create any API compatibility issues.
