[Bug-wget] [PATCH] Fix some clang-analyzer warnings

User-agent: KMail/4.14.2 (Linux/3.16.0-4-amd64; KDE/4.14.2; x86_64; ; )

Fixes these warnings:

        gnutls.c:457:3: warning: Value stored to 'err' is never read
          err = 0;

        http-ntlm.c:477:5: warning: Value stored to 'size' is never read
          size = (size_t) snprintf (ntlmbuf, sizeof(ntlmbuf),

        http.c:1479:3: warning: Attempt to free released memory
          xfree_null (hs->error);

The last one *might* result in a crash under special circumstances.


I think we should just have one xfree() macro instead of two (xfree and
xfree_null, some parts of the code even use free() directly).

IMHO, a free'd pointer should always be set to NULL afterwards (as a good
programming convention). I suggest the following macro

#define xfree(a) do { if (a) { free ((void *) (a)); a = NULL; } } while (0)

What do you think ?

Tim
