This makes an effort to find cases where the argument to sizeof is wrong in memory allocation functions by checking the type of the allocated memory when it is a double pointer and ensuring the sizeof argument takes a pointer to the the memory being allocated. There are false positives in cases the sizeof argument is not used in constructing the return value.
