   People can make oversights now and then, even change their code
from a malloc to an alloca and forget they've done so, etc. How can you
be so certain why they're checking for the return value.

   In any case, you may want to bring this discussion up with the author 
of:

evas/src/lib/engines/common/evas_map_image_internal.c

where around line 78 you'll find some code that reads:

// // allocate some spans to hold out span list
 spans = alloca((yend - ystart + 1) * sizeof(Line));
 if (!spans) return;
