The strdup/strndup() introduces malloc() to allocate memory,

I'm not sure this patch is necessary.
We already check for memory leaks in many utilities (in 'make
extra-tests'), but we only do it for the success case. If the utility
fails, it's better that it just exits as soon as possible, even if it
doesn't free all memory along the way.
