After memory allocation failure vc_allocate() doesn't clean up data

Hi,
A gentle reminder. Could you please review my patch? I've seen two
crashes caused by this bug.
How? How are you triggering a memory allocation failure in a "normal"
system?
Anyway, I'll queue this up, but it really does not seem like anything
anyone would see "in the wild".
thanks,
