Fwd: [Libevent-users] Possible memleaks reported in Debian bug#679217

[Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Whoops. Should have sent this to the mailing list.

Also, Leo, where did you get the idea that the @monkey.org address is
the current mailing list?  Is there a dead link somewhere?

They look okay superficially. They're not likely to hit Debian much in
practice, since they can only get triggered on an OOM where malloc()
or calloc() returns NULL, which simply doesn't tend to happen much on
linux glibcs, right?

Also, when I commit them, what should I use for the git Author field?
They appear to be from George Danchev , but the author in the file is
given as Anibal Monsalve Salazar.  Who wrote these patches and the
writeups on them?
