Greetings:
The following webrev image contains a fix for a memory leak that occurs in the 
procedure: Java_com_sun_security_auth_module_UnixSystem_getUnixInfo (JNIEnv 
*env, jobject obj) in the file: 
jdk/src/solaris/native/com/sun/security/auth/module/Unix.c

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~khazra/john/8000204/webrev/

The leaked memory is associated with the pointer named "groups": gid_t *groups 
= (gid_t *)calloc(numSuppGroups, sizeof(gid_t));

The procedure in question exits in many places and in every case it's necessary 
to deallocate this memory. The leak occurred because returns were being made 
without freeing it. I fixed the leak by modifying the code so that there is a 
common "exit point", that is reached from these same places via goto 
statements, that performs this common function, immediately before the "return" 
statement.

Thanks!
