Leo did test this before and added his Tested-by on the Coresight
mailing list.  I did not carried it here because I changed the call to
reallocarray() to realloc() in order to avoid cross compilation
problems.  I think it is safe enough but other people's opinion may
differ so I played it safe.  Leo, please test this again if/when you
have the time.

Very well.
