Yes, if you don't do new/delete pairs under the same circumstances you risk having problems.
Even if you wrote all the code, it suffers from the usual problems of using global variables to set global state that various parts of the code rely on, i.e. encapsulation failure.
But isn't this exactly what the proposed allocation system linked above enables?
