There is still some memory-leak in nft which is due to no matching free for
xstrdup in scanner.l:580.
In main.c, argv is passed as a const, and in main.c:270 filename points to this
const location (by optarg).
So it would be safe to remove xstrdup from scanner.l:580.
$ sudo valgrind --leak-check=full nft -f ~/backup.nft
==4075== 22 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 1 of 3
