Comment (by pospeselr):

 I'm not sure I'm following.  In each instance XXX is type char^^*^^* or
 wchar^^*^^*.

 Sure if we fail to allocate the 1 (or 2) bytes needed for the empty
 string's null terminator we probably have bigger problems and the error
 handling isn't *technically* needed since we're bound to crash soon
 anyway, but seems sloppy to omit it.

 Fixing the text replacement fail.
