That's not the correct fix.

iphlapi: Fix some leaks (coverity)

Hi Frédéric,

thanks for the patch. Allow me to elaborate:

The correct place to fix is getIpAddrTable in ifenum.c, so that should it
fail, it frees the memory it allocated. This was obviously an oversight on
my part. See the for loop here:
http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/iphlpapi/ifenum.c#L735

This loop terminates if something fails, so after the for loop is an ideal
place to add a HeapFree. In this way, the callers (GetIpAddrTable is but
one) never have to cope with freeing memory when getIpAddrTable fails.
