Replace uses of strdup with xstrdup.
Like xmalloc and xrealloc xstrdup dies with a useful message if the native strdup() implementation returns NULL rather than a valid pointer. I just tried to use xstrdup in new code and found it to be missing. However I expected it to be present as xmalloc and xrealloc are already commonly used throughout the code. [jc: removed the part that deals with last_XXX, which I am finding more and more dubious these days.] Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
