The parameter name "namelen" suggests that you pass the equivalent of
strlen() to the function alloc_ref(). However, this function did not
allocate enough space to put a NUL after the name.
Since struct ref does not have any member to describe the length of the
string, this just does not make sense.
So make space for the NUL.
