Sorry if it wasn't very clear, I wasn't criticizing your patch, but
the code that was there before :)
Nagy also saw this problem in splitdeps and corrected it a while ago,
by adding the strdup() function that you replaced by an equivalent.
(I liked the strdup there though, because it's simpler ;) )
So I don't think it's needed to change splitdeps.

I just find this code in pacman_deptest rather curious, because it
indeed looks out of place. So I think your patch for this function is
correct.

Ah one little thing, I wonder if this free(saved_target) that you
already removed
could be replaced by free(dep).
