There is a 'malloc' call, which can be unsuccessful.
This patch will add the malloc failure checking
to avoid possible null dereference and give more information
about test fail reasons.

The test isn't conformed to TAP. Maybe the next patch could be to conform
the whole test into TAP, would be easy and straight forward.

* Please use a corresponding imperative wording for the change description.

* Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” accordingly?
