Yeah, true. Attached is a revised patch -- committed to HEAD.

Since both allocations are only transient within this routine, there's
a simpler more effective solution, which is to only do one malloc in
the first place:
char *crypt_pwd2;
/* need enough space for 2 MD5 hashes */
if (!(crypt_pwd = malloc(2 * (MD5_PASSWD_LEN + 1
{
fprintf(stderr, libpq_gettext("out of memory\n"));
return STATUS_ERROR;
}
crypt_pwd2 = crypt_pwd + (MD5_PASSWD_LEN + 1);
and drop the free(crypt_pwd2) calls.

[PATCHES] libpq: fix unlikely memory leak
The attached patch fixes a theoretical memory leak in libpq: if the
second malloc() fails due to OOM, the memory returned by the first
(successful) malloc() will be leaked.
Barring any objections I'll apply this tomorrow.
Per report from EnterpriseDB's Coverity analysis.
