If the re-allocation of tep->cmdlines succeeds, then the previous allocation of tep->cmdlines will be freed. If we later fail in add_new_comm(), we must not free cmdlines, and also should assign tep->cmdlines to the new allocation. Otherwise when freeing tep, the tep->cmdlines will be pointing to garbage.
