I'm running out of ideas.
That was a bit hasty comment. Without '-fsanitize=address' compiler
option, while keepign '-O0 -g -ggdb' valgrind was able to display another
leak. When both leaks were fixed the mkswap started to return zero
expected way.
The second leak was caused by size_to_human_string() that is coming from
libcommon.la. Did the ASAN + clang fall over because of libtool static
library and atexit()? I don't know, and I guess this maillist is wrong
forum to investigate. I'm just happy if someone who has similar issue
finds this thread useful.

Subject: [PATCH v2] mkswap: remove memory leaks [LeakSanitizer] [valgrind]

Direct leak of 8 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

And another one that valgrind found.
