_______________________________________________________
Details:
lib/savedir.h has multiple (2) memory leaks for two variables and
some more bugs:
* path and pathlen are not static
* pathlen is used uninitialized
* path is repeatedly overwritten by the calloc() call
* the 'slash = (path[dirlen] != '/')' line is totaly useless, because
dirlenbpoints always to the '\0' of the previously strcpy(), so slash is
always 1
* if the relloc() of name_space failed, name_space is still a valid pointer
Thanks to Bert Wesarg for reporting this bug.
