Good catch. I agree that this needs a v2. I posted v1 by inspection
only, going off of someone else's valgrind report; I'll try harder to
actually reproduce the failure locally before v2.

That might work, too - but the point is that doRemoteOpen should
probably be using doRemoteClose to do that cleanup on failure, so
doRemoteClose still needs to be fixed to get all the contents cleaned up
in all cases.
