Because according to Thomas Dickey, he did not fix all
the memory related problems in snapshot 20141005.  Specifically there are
still
some issues not fixed when realloc() is called.
I was going to wait for the next snapshot.
However, I wanted to get that one fix into FreeBSD to fix the kyua tests,
which have been failing under Jenkins.  See:
https://jenkins.freebsd.org/jenkins/job/FreeBSD_HEAD-tests2/
(see runs #10 and #11).
