The other is that SAFE_FREE does not appear to call xfree to free the memory that SAFE_ALLOCA allocated with xmalloc. Maybe SAFE_ALLOCA is not used often to allocate more than 16kB (the threshold for using the heap instead of the stack) so this has gone unnoticed in the past.

I take that back, xfree is called from safe_alloca_unwind, the memory leak lies elsewhere.
