This has a talloc_zero(NULL,...). Would it be possible to
use talloc_tos() here?

While in general a good direction, this one has the snippet

-                               SAFE_FREE(f->subfname);
-                               f->subfname = SMB_STRDUP(n2);
+                               TALLOC_FREE(f->subfname);
+                               f->subfname = talloc_strdup(f, n2);
                                TALLOC_FREE(n2);

SMB_STRDUP panics on failure, talloc_strdup does not. So we
need NULL checks in these scenarios. I haven't checked all
places where this is done.

Obviously good. R-B me.

Just for simplicity, can we make it such that the equivalent
piece of code in source3/param/loadparm.c looks exactly the
same? If we touch the code, we should unify the code lines
1:1.
