Patch looks good to me.  I'm going to be a bit picky though and say
that if you unconditionally initialize variables when they are
declared, as in the hunk above, then you prevent the compiler from
detecting when you use a variable without first initializing it.

In this particular case the initialisation is required. The reason is that we unconditionally free the variable in the cleanup lower down. This pattern means we can 'goto error' and not worry about leaking objects which may or may not have been allocated.
