basename(3) creates a static buffer for storing paths. This libcall can fail if
malloc fails however, and this potential failure isn't documented in the
manage:
68 char *
69 basename(const char *path)
70 {
71 static char *bname = NULL;
72
73 if (bname == NULL) {
74 bname = (char *)malloc(MAXPATHLEN);
75 if (bname == NULL)
76 return (NULL);
77 }
