it's also worth pointing out that there are several callers of
da_read_buf() in this function, all of which have identical error
checking and hence are all going to have the same problem if it
does actually exist.

When coverity issues a warning, we really need to check all
instances of the same code for the same problem, even if coverity
doesn't warn about the other call sites....

Cheers,

Dave.
