Hi Clark, FYI

http://www.dii.uchile.cl/~daespino/files/Iso_C_1999_definition.pdf

7.20.3.3 The malloc function
. . . . .
Description
2 The malloc function allocates space for an object
 whose size is specified by size and whose value is indeterminate.
Returns
3 The malloc function returns either a null pointer 
or a pointer to the allocated space.

so there is nothing in C standard about never returning NULL
