Last time I asked:

"although I'm confused as to why you need to g_strdup the string. You
already have p and its not like gdb_get_dynamic_xml couldn't dup the
string if it needed to (which it doesn't seem to)."

You could argue it as a bounding exercise from a potentially hostile
gdbstub packet but if that is the intention a comment should go here.
