Understood, but you could create a helper function private to strutil and have
both secure and non-secure variants call that.

What's the difference, one might ask? But StrAllocFormatted and
StrAllocFormattedSecure are pretty obvious.
Currently the old functions are wrappers around the new with a FALSE for
fZeroOnRealloc. This is good in reducing duplication. I agree *Alloc* and
*Allocate* are confusing without reading the code, though mostly to those
who've internalized the old names. :) Suffixes might make that a bit clearer.
