I guess your point is that it doesn't matter if the nfs-client translator crashes (resulting in EGRATIOUS to the caller?) or returns some other error when it runs out of memory. If it's a passive translator, it will be restarted when needed. However, I think code like nn = malloc (sizeof (struct netnode)); assert (nn); is a misuse of assert. The code will crash in different ways if you compile it with or without NDEBUG. If one doesn't want to deal with malloc failures, it's better to explicitly call abort on failure, preferably by uing xmalloc instead of malloc.
