Why don't use stick with stack memory here? Allocating a (fixed sized)
junk on the heap only means that you'll have to free it again.

Sorry, but "goto" is a no-go for collectd. You can use something like
"do { … } while (0);" if you must, but in this particular case I think
simply using stack memory is the way to go.
