Description
ZALLOC is a macro  using calloc, see :

jdk/src/java.desktop/unix/native/common/awt/awt_p.h
/* allocated and initialize a structure */
#define ZALLOC(T)       ((struct T *)calloc(1, sizeof(struct T)))

so the return value has to be checked which is missing at some places.
Comments
Fix request (13u): may be fixed; should be fixed; patch applies cleanly.

jdk11 fix request I would like to have the fix in jdk11 as well, because the issue is present there too. The patch applies cleanly.
