From fdf14ae2e653f275c085329b183373e1fb062693 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Denys Vlasenko Date: Sat, 5 Sep 2009 23:37:40 +0200 Subject: do not save/restore errno around free() calls In any non-buggy program free() does not fail. And when it fails in a buggy program, the failure is usually fatal (heap corruption and segfault).
