And why are there no 'friends' that do not abort?

So what does the allow_failure parameter do?

No, emalloc() and friends abort in case of a memory overflow, Checking
for the return value does not make any sense.

Is a call to exit() graceful request termination?
In my opinion, that's just killing the entire process.
And in the case of a multi-threaded server, that's equivalent to
killing the entire server.
BTW, erealloc has an allow_failure parameter. How about passing true at
/php4/ext/zlib/zlib.c:628?
ZEND_API void *_erealloc(void *ptr, size_t size, int allow_failure
ZEND_FILE_LINE_DC ZEND_FILE_LINE_ORIG_DC)
