g_mem_set_vtable() isn't useful, since one of the main uses cases for handling
OOM errors would be the moonlight plugin where the glib mem vtable can't be
changed. GLib has g_try_malloc() which we could use, but still the best way is
to just get rid of glib.
The buffer to be released when malloc fails can be considered: the issue is
that we don't know how much memory we'd need in it and that we don't want to
bloat processes if possible.
