  The APIs are okay, I'm just wondering if the iterator should not return 
an int allowing to break the iteration, but admitedly that would make it
close to the search. So it's fine as-is.

  It could be useful and cheap to return the number of item traversed
if there was no failure.

Same thing, we could return the number of item deallocated, callbacks 
make hard to keep the count.

 Iterating when removing entries which are first in the list is a bit tricky
but that's looks fine.

Minor stylistic issue I tend to use return(value); and you use sometime
return (value); or return value; but it's really not a serious problem :-)
