Let me say that I wholeheartedly agree. I wrote it more as a joke rather
then a practical solution (didn't you notice :) in the end?). And I also
concur that malloc() call must be checked. I missed it :/ and should've
caught it right away.

I'd fire any coder working for me that wrote that.
You are worried about what? about up to 10 bytes that gets lost
from malloc for the life of this program? Good grief. I'd be slightly
more worried about you not checking for a NULL result from malloc().
