    vos: Don't leak/overflow bulkaddrs
    
    The vos listaddrs command repeatedly reuses a bulkaddrs array. It
    zeros it once (without freeing the allocated memory), and then
    repeatedly uses it without zeroing in a loop. This means that the XDR
    library assumes that a sufficiently large block is already allocated,
    doesn't reallocate for the incoming data, or check limits.
    
    This means that if the first call to VL_GetAddrsU returns a set of
    addresses smaller than subsequent calls, we'll write past the end
    of the array, causing memory corruption.
    
    Fix this by freeing the arrays correctly with each pass of the call.
