[PATCH 0/1] MR867: ntdll: Check for failure from get_initial_environment().

[Zebediah Figura (＠zfigura)]

Alternatively, since this is early in startup and we don't expect this malloc()
to fail, we could simply remove the check from get_initial_environment() itself.

[PATCH 1/1] ntdll: Check for failure from get_initial_environment().

From: Zebediah Figura

This avoids a gcc warning:

That would be better, the error checks are a waste of time here.
