Subject: Re: bin/83340: [patch] setnetgrent() and supporting functions don&#39;t check malloc for failures
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2012 15:17:13 -0600

 I have updated the patch a bit to resolve the possibility of a memory =
 leak in parse_netgrp() if an ng_str[] element allocation fails, and to =
 prevent corrupting the grouphead.gr chain in the event any allocation =
 fails. However, I don't have an environment handy to test this so if you =
 could check this before I commit it, I would appreciate it.
