Hi,

After reading the code creating servers.bind reply, I made a change to 
use realloc call instead. It should allow saving some memory copying 
when it is possible to just extend allocated memory size. I have 
replaced  few other uses as well. It is not yet tested much, but should 
be safe enough.

It might also slightly improve performance handling sockets, because it 
reduces copying done on socket listener adding.

Just improvement without adding any other feature.

Cheers,

Petr
