In __hists__add_entry the srcline of the addr_location is duplicated
for the hist_entry. If hists__findnew_entry returns an already existing
hist_entry the srcline has to be freed again as no further reference to
that duplicated srcline would exists anymore.

While this shouldn't leak the memory, we may end up with an al->srcline
to get free afterwards while still having a reference on it within the
hist_entry... Also I could not find where/how the hist_entry is freed up
so we may get an double free if both of al and he clean the srcline.
Of course, with your solution we could spare the useless strdup/free if
we find an hist_entry (which should be the typical case for hotspots..).
Taking a deeper look thus should be beneficial - but I do not have the
time for that right now because I'm still working on the inline-symbol
integration which is more important for me...

I think we can defer calling strdup() to hist_entry__init().

right, thats actualy better fix even for the original patch,
I'll try to post it soon
