memory allocate error check

I dig into the snort source code, and find there are many missing check
code of memory allocation.

for example:

sp_dsize_check.c
    otn->ds_list[PLUGIN_DSIZE_CHECK] = (DsizeCheckData *) calloc(sizeof(DsizeChe
ckData), sizeof(char));


sp_session.c

    otn->ds_list[PLUGIN_SESSION] = (SessionData *) calloc(sizeof(SessionData), s
izeof(char));

    filename = (char *) calloc(strlen(session_file)+1,sizeof(char));


I think a programm missing memory checking is not a mature programm.
