In the doListFontsWithInfo function in dixfonts.c, when a font alias is
encountered (err == FontNameAlias), the code saves the current state
and allocates memory for c->savedName.
If the malloc(namelen + 1) call fails, c->savedName remains NULL,
but c->haveSaved is still set to TRUE. Later, when a font is
successfully resolved (err == Successful), the code uses c->savedName
without checking if it is NULL, so there is potential null ptr
dereference. XNFalloc will check result of malloc and stop
program execution if allocation was failed.
