I'm fine with the the 00 patch.

If you want to you could remove the assert:
-BlockFreelist::BlockFreelist() : _dictionary(NULL) {}
+BlockFreelist::BlockFreelist()
+    : _dictionary(new BlockTreeDictionary()) {
+  assert(_dictionary != NULL, "Failed to allocate BlockTreeDictionary");
+}

since it's not needed.

Thanks,
