In current versions of GLib, g_new() may expand into g_malloc_n(), which we don't model. When it does, Coverity can't see the memory allocation. Similarly for g_new0(), g_renew(), g_try_new(), g_try_new0(), g_try_renew().
Model g_try_malloc_n(), g_malloc_n(), g_try_malloc0_n(), g_malloc0_n(), g_try_realloc_n(). To avoid undue duplication, rewrite the existing memory allocation models on top of them. In my local testing, this gets rid of false positives. But it also adds a few, and has a few other effects I can't explain. Posting as RFC, will follow up with details.
