The 'len > 4' check is needed because there's no guarantee that 'line'
is NUL-terminated. Correct?

skip_prefix() maybe?

So, you're allocating a buffer for server_capabilities and then
immediately throwing away (leaking) that buffer. Seems fishy.

Not outright incorrect, but you've just detached capabilities_string's
buffer, so releasing it doesn't buy anything.

The bit about src_buf and src_len conveys little or nothing. After
reading it, I'm as clueless to their purpose as I would be if they
were undocumented.

'shallow_points' what?
