Revert r344389 & r343906 - Fix Coverity errors in newsyslog

It was pointed out that a couple of the "memory leak" CIDs that I
fixed were arguably Coverity errors rather than errors in the
newsyslog code and the cure was worse than the disease. Revert both
changes. The first change, which included fixes for other Coverity
errors, will be re-worked to omit the troublesome changes and then
re-committed with the remaining fixes.
