Needs a v3.

Moving the declaration here, and a cleanup at the end, will only free
_one_ instance of allocation.

But these values were allocated in a for loop, so if there is more than
one nsrvrecords, then you are leaking on each iteration of the loop.

You need to also copy these three lines into the end of the for loop.
