Hi Nikita! You have commented on <https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72828>:
| Unless the allocations explicitly use the system allocator (i.e. do | not use emalloc and variants), do NOT introduce NULL checks. Can you please elaborate, why that shouldn't be done. Actually, the allocations use safe_emalloc() and emalloc(), respectively[1]. However, the only client of the function does explicitly check for a NULL return[2], which can only happen, if safe_emalloc() fails. So if no NULL checks should be done, this one should be removed as well.
