You got me confused, yeah, it ended up a bit confusing, but the idea was
to share the error message, i.e. have just one printf("FATAL:
enomem"...) for both alloc failures, the later will have to free the
array elements, and it is ok to call free(NULL), thus the change from
malloc to zalloc(aliases), so that all its entries were zeroed, yadda,
yadda.
