It is a different target in MSL C.PPC.MTrgt.mcp (assuming Pro 6 here). 
Prior to Pro 6 there is no carbonized (production version) MSL C.  For
C++, the same lib is good for carbon and non-carbon (doesn't depend so
much on the OS).

There are people here who know a lot more about Mac OS than I do, but I
would tend to match NewPtr with DisposePtr and MPAllocate with
MPDeallocate (I'm sure I've misspelled the MP guys).  Or did I
misunderstand the question?
