While testing in support of #2252 I ran into this crash bug which looks like this:
The fix is simply that in the case where
get_server_path
returns justSERVER_FILENAME
, it must be duplicated, because the caller expects to be able to free the returned value. If the duplication fails, we return NULL which indicates failure, so no further error handling is necessary, unless we wanted to log something about that extremely rare situation.
