Don't trap.

Yes, many VDI/AES-functions returns an error code.

True, a malloc for every single v_gtext will be a real pain. In the
short term I think it's better to just make the structs static, and then
find a better solution later. I doubt that reentrancy will be a problem.
Can anybody mention a multithreaded AES-app compiled with GEMlib?
