I spot checked various callers of these functions that not return NULL 
and they looked reasonable. Though I was a bit concerned about the 
callers of dlang_type, dlang_value and dlang_identifier.

In those cases we'll often still do the string_append, string_setlength 
and other calls in the caller of dlang_{value,type,identifier}.  I'm 
assuming that's safe (the error still appears to be bubbling up properly).

If you can confirm that we're OK in those cases, then this is OK for the 
trunk.
