This is a good start.

Perhaps we should have a function in libshouldbeinlibc that does this.
ftpfs and ping also need to be fixed.

Consider using realloc instead of a free followed by a malloc.

Please conform more closely to the GNU coding standards.  For
instance, you cast too much (no need to cast the return result of
malloc; in fact it is wrong), parentheses are wrong, some indentation
and spacing also look incorrect.
