When getline returns an error status (-1), and is fed with
a NULL buffer (so it`d have to allocate on its behalf if any input),
it _does_ the allocation.
So it seems you need to free the buffer _even_ if getline
failed.
This quite may be an expected way for it to behave, but still
it is not obvious from its info page.
The glibc version in question is 3.2.3-debian-sid-latest.
