Sorry if I used WORKSFORME resolution incorrectly (actually I misread it), but
the code is still wrong. You have added two checks:

heapframe *newframe = ...
if (heapframe == NULL) RRETURN(PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY);\

heapframe *frame = ...
if (frame == NULL) RRETURN(PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY);

The second is correct - variable frame is checked. But the first check is
incorrect - variable newframe may be assigned NULL pointer and check doesn't
use that variable.
