Is there a particular reason that you accumulate everything in a buffer?

If I read the loop below correctly, you should be able to run it using
only the functions sha1_to_hex(), strlen() and write_in_full(). This
would avoid any problems with concurrent calls to xmalloc().

sha1_to_hex() works with a static buffer. Are you certain that it is not
called concurrently in the main thread?
