Nit: The blank line adds some asymmetry, IMVHO.

Do you really need this hunk? In my testing with LeakSanitizer and
valgrind, I don't need this hunk to be leak-free. Generally speaking, it
seems impossible to UNLEAK when dying, since we don't know what we have
allocated higher up in the call-stack.

Without this hunk, this patch can have my

as I've verified the leaks before and after. With this hunk, I am
puzzled and feel uneasy, both about having to UNLEAK before dying and
about having to UNLEAK outside of builtin/.

Both `commits` and `oids` are on the stack here, so cleaning up one more
than the other is a bit asymmetrical. Also, if we try to zero the counts
-- which seems unnecessary to me, but which is not new with this patch --
we should perhaps use `FREE_AND_NULL` too. But personally, I would just
use `free` and leave `nr` and `alloc` at whatever values they happen to
have.
