Since this hit 'next', Coverity complained about a small leak. Fixed by
the patch below.

The patch below looks good and makes sense to me. That warning is
awfully long, though ;-).

In any event, I expect that 'next' will be rewound before this topic
graduates, since it is meaty and we are in the middle of the -rc phase.

...and we also have my series on top [1], so it may be worthwhile for
you, Jonathan, and I to figure out how to combine our efforts here. I
think that this could likely get squashed in to Jonathan's topic
if/after it gets ejected from 'next'. We can take my patches together in
the same series, separately in a different one, or discard them
altogether.

If we do decide to pursue the approach in [1], I think combining
everything together into one big series makes the most sense for ease of
merging.

Thanks,

For what it's worth, whatever we decide sounds good to me.
