Andrew et al,
AFAICS here:
220 encoding_variant = malloc(strlen(temp)+1);
221 if (encoding_variant == NULL) {
222 JNU_ThrowOutOfMemoryError(env, NULL);
223 return 0;
224 }
we also need to do free(temp). Similarly later where we return with
OOM due to realloc failure, don't we also need to free what was
previously malloc'd?

I see there are follow-on mails to this but just to say that this is
System.initProperties time so if there is a malloc failure this early in
startup then it will cause the VM initialization to fail. So for
completeness (and perhaps native memory leak detection tools) then I
agree but if we do have problems here then we aren't go to go very far.
